Top landmarks in College

"the room where you go to listen". When you first go inside, it seems to e just a small white room with a single bench and colored panels. What's unique and really cool about this room though is that it's hooked up to computers and sensors that monitor and react to outside environmental stimulus! The colors on the panel change to reflect the cycles of the sun and the moon. Atmospheric music plays us a map of the things that are happening all around us tht we can't see. Auroral activity obscured by daylight rings out as bells. Imperceptible tremors and earthquakes have the room emitting low rumbles. It's amazing how noisy this world is!
