An Igloo Appears on the Old Main Lawn

A colleague over in Old Main (former Penn Stater magazine art director April Scimio ’84) e-mailed me this morning to say that an igloo had popped up on the Old Main lawn over the weekend. I went over with a camera and, sure enough, she was not hallucinating. Spring Semester classes didn’t start until today, so I’m guessing that the structure is the work of some students who had time on their hands after Saturday’s snowstorm. I’m also guessing they had to be engineering majors. Would you know how to create a hollow, self-supporting structure out of snow?
