	They don't want to tell you, but some buildings on campus are *obviously* spaceships. They are designed to house students and faculty, and also to provide intergalactic space travel facilities for Bob Lynch and President Murray (and Roz). Not like you couldn't figure it out on your own, but we thought we'd give you a hand in figuring out which buildings to look out for: Rotunda: Obviously, this is a space shuttle in disguise. Beneath the floor, there are three giant rockets capable of launching the entire building into orbit. In the case of a nuclear emergency, a special key is inserted into the seal in the center of the floor, and a command console pops up from behind the security desk. Donnelly: You'd have to be some sort of flaming retard to not realize that this building is actually the Millennium Falcon in dry-dock. At the heart of the "building" beats the heart of several enormous computers, capable of navigating said "building" through a field of Tie Fighters. Every good space shuttle needs a security office (got it), a place to get food (cafe), and sleeping quarters (the classrooms... duh). You know how sometimes you can't check you email late at night? That's because Donnelly has actually taken off, and is orbiting the Earth. Greystone: While not actually a space shuttle, Greystone houses Marist's rocket arsenal... which go into the air... kinda like space shuttles. Champagnat: Also not a space shuttle, but very important to the Rotunda's docking procedures. Champagnat not only provides a convenient refueling station, but also as a sort of air traffic control station. Lowell Thomas: This building is responsible for creating the force field that secures Marist from enemy attack. Ever notice all of the satellite dishes on top of it? Well... duh. Dyson: This is where all of the paperwork gets done. As an analogy, Dyson:Marist::Houston:NASA. Whenever there's a problem, they say "Dyson, we have a problem." Byrne House: Since this is a very small building, it only stands to reason that it houses that big silver thing from Disney's "Flight of the Navigator." Mid Hudson Bridge: Remember in "Flight of the Navigator" how he flew under a bridge? Yup. Fontaine: Purpose still not determined. Please let us know if you have any ideas. Benoit & Gregory: While being the friggin' ugliest buildings on campus, they serve a very important purpose. In the event of war, missiles are shipped from Greystone, loaded into the "basement", and shot out of that little hole in the middle of the floor. So obviously... missile silos. St. Ann's Hermitage: This building houses hermits, which we believe to be from another planet.
