(You don't want to miss this week's Sextion, believe me).You may not have realized it, but Brown and the Oscars really go hand in hand this year, and here is why.Cold Call Me By Your Namem3esdWhen a Brown professor uses this tactic in the hopes of calling out a random name from their class list, receiving the correct answer, and perhaps in turn meeting a handsome doctoral student who awakens desires they didn't even know they had.Three Billboards Outside of Providence Place MallProvidencePlace2When the Providence Place Mall is used for criminal justice purposes, and not just the advertisement of sneakers. We haven't gotten there yet, but this is for when that situation arises.The Shape of Water Firef629fef2742e2a66bf0b267e7dd4806f1918812When Brown Students attend Water Fire dressed as lizard people and make out in front of the rest of the audience causing both discomfort and adoration.Done-kirk65b1f7a56e2c3bf8142b94ffddb807ed6749b261a0d0fcf6ec9e57d80e5414beWhen you've studied for an exam in silence for way too long and you still don't really understand, and it seems as though you are trapped in the SciLi with the exam date encroaching on you...
