Junk in Physics Building Hallways

  • As many already know, studying for the physics GRE and getting accepted into a graduate program is not the final hurdle in your physics career.
  • There are many issues current physics graduate students face such as studying for their qualifier, deciding upon a field of research, choosing an advisor, being an effective teaching assistant, trying to have a social life, navigating department politics, dealing with stress, utilizing financial aid, etc.

Junk in Physics Building Hallways

Any quality junk laying around your physics department?

Run of the mill junk (all over the place -- do they ever throw anything out?):

Random giant magnet (I want to try being Magneto):

Man sized oven/graduate student isolation chamber (~6' tall cooking compartment):

I wonder if it'd go for anything on eBay...

There's one more thing I need to take a picture of. Not so much a piece of junk as a unique building feature (also need to take a picture of the humanities building).
