The men's bathroom of IVC's A200: a message to our students

Nothing says "we love you" to students more than a well-maintained rest room!
—And nothing says "FU" more than this.
Nothing I found in the restroom today is unusual.
This is how this restroom always looks.
Most of us (faculty) just go over to the restroom in A100,
which, natch, is nicer, though nothing to write home about.
Hell, over there, they seem to remodel stuff on a whim!
Remember when the floor was red, and then, suddenly, it wasn't?
I think they intended to put up a sign saying "midgets" above
that paper dispenser on the right, but they never did get around to it.

Somebody'll be around any second to bus this table.
This is what people do when they're in shitty restrooms.
The plumbing of these sinks looks Flintstonian.
The paper dispenser at right looks like it's been through several wars.
I don't know what this entity is, but, whatever it is,
it's been there, on the ceiling, growing, for years.
Cobwebs, natch.

I expect a certain amount of use from a public restroom but the elements that are most discouraging are the dust and cobwebs and other indicators that no one has cleaned deeply or much at all. I am speaking of the women's room where there is a visible later of dirt and dust and other matter everywhere.

Shiny new vending machines outside though.

Please put something pretty or funny up - these pics are neither.

This blog has always been about more than the pretty or funny.

I think the janitors need to be re-trained. That should be high priority for JE.
