In the midst of beautiful fall leaves and the traditional Beaver orange & black, the Library quad was all pink & blue, Flickr-style. It was a lot of work, but from beginning to end it was also a lot of fun! Want to see how fun? Check out the “Common Ground 2009” set in the osu.archives Flickr account.

We had the chance to talk to many many passersby in the afternoon while Media Services and Facilities Services worked their magic with a crane, big screen, and patience during an enormous downpour. Many great conversations were sparked by the prompt “Do you want to know why there’s a big crane?”

The Gazette-Times wrote a great article, “Projecting a Northwest Image,” and indicommons has a complete global debrief from ALL the Common Ground events Friday and Saturday nights.

Sad that you missed the fun? Short on a time machine? You still have two options! You can view all the images selected for Common Ground on this indicommons page or scroll through all the images on Flickr.
