ATU Ghost Tour. February 15, 3:00pm, Hull Student Union. This is a walking tour, so comfy shoes
and a jacket (depending on weather) will be key! Please bring a mask, as we will go

McEver Catacombs Tour. March 15. 3:00pm. Meet in the McEver courtyard / in front of the McEver Observatory

Tour Behind the Scenes of ATU Facilities. Tuesday, April 12, 4:00pm. Meet outside Tucker Coliseum by the roll up door on the
north size of the building. How do you heat and cool a building like Tucker Coliseum? Apparently by using these
weird hidden rooms halfway up the ceiling. You’ll get to see those, along with the
enormous boiler and chiller in the creepy mechanical room, in addition to a other
Tucker gems. Then we’ll head to Witherspoon to take a look at the Pie Room, the organ
pipe access, and the “fourth floor.” ATU Director of Physical Plant, Brian Lasey,
will lead the tour and answer your burning questions concerning behind the scenes
of ATU facilities (like “What’s that random little building over there? What’s the
weirdest animal that’s gotten into a building? What happened to the trailers?”)
