Graffiti

From CarlWiki

Graffiti under a bridge in the Arb

Carleton's graffiti is notable for its (arguably) intellectual components. It can be found in bathrooms all over campus.

Note that official college policy does not favor such graffiti, and that these postings are not intended to promote the creation of further graffiti.

1999 - 2001

This is a list of observed graffiti at Carleton between 1999 and 2001. To protect students' privacy, most names have been replaced with "[name]" if it seems like they could possibly be identified as particular people. The name "Throckmorton" is used to substitute for one very commonly appearing name.
