maybe he was related to the kid that lived in the nyu student center in 1997/98?... (before that was torn down and yet another nyu monstrosity was built) whatever happened to that kid?

Back during my days as a bookbinder at Boston University's Mugar Library, we used to have to "pulp" or discard out of date books to make shelf space for new ones. One day thousands of books arrived for pulping from the "Western Civilization Collection." Apparently it was housed in a room that almost nobody ever bothered to use. One day, manaic right winger BU President John Silber was walking by it and saw a couple of students... doing it... in the stacks. And that was the end of the Western Civilization Collection. Sex in the stacks. Don't do it. Book collections will suffer.

Clearly, you've taken appreciation of the theatre to the next level.

Hey, why not direct students to the NYU daily student newspaper, the Washington Square News, which broke the story (yesterday) in the first place? (aside from the fact that the website appears to be down, that is. Sigh. check www.nyunews.com periodically if you're curious, folks.) -Dave WSN Weekend Editor

Oh come now, Tim, there are few more sacrilicious libraries to have sex in than Duane. I guess it all depends on your year and willingness to go straight to hell. See Creative places to have sex at Fordham in LiveJournal's Fordham community. Columbia students, for various levels of adventurism, get Butler, low, and for extreme TC-ers willing to brave construction, Milbank.

There was this dude at Butler Library when I was at Columbia who was ALWAYS there. He took something like 8 classes per term and was active in a few organizations. To make things more efficient, he would sleep in the library between his studying and his first class. I had a friend who was friends with him and he only used his room to shower and change into some new clothes.

Sex in the stacks? Somedays I'm sorry I went to Fordham... PS: Is Gothamist trying to tell us readers something? :>)
