In keeping up with "numbers week" here is today's mystery campus:
hints:
85, 93, 94, 96, 97, 98, (99), (100), 101, 102, 103, controversy for 104-106, 116 and 118 (the last one being retracted)
This should be an easy one. Leave your answers in the comments (or email me).
(PS Michael, this one's for you!)
I send an email, but i haven't been paying close enough attention to the game to know if we are supposed to post the answer in the comments.
I knew the answer because i am from a very small town quite near the very small town where the famous dude the numbers refer to, grew up. You know, right down the road from Negaunee?
*grin* Yooper scientists unite!
At, Np, Pu, Cm, Bk, Cf, Es, Fm, Md, No, Lr, Rf, Db, Sg, Uuh, and Uuo. Cf is named after the state where the campus is located and Bk after the town.
If you zoom in on the google maps satellite image of this campus you'll see that there's a football game in progress.
Numbers week? Why that must be the University of Hyderabad, where the number zero was invented...
Either that, or it's the University of California-Berkeley, and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab.
True, but I can't read the scoreboard. Who won?
Interesting that something was caught in the stadium. It looks as though the game is over as everyone seems to be moving away from the field. Very curious.
Overheard in the lab: "There's not too many kids in the stands. That picture must have been from a while ago when [the team] sucked, they've done well recently."
The Bevatron is being dismantled.
