I remember the time I rode an elevator top to the attic of a university building where we found about a ton of mercury and an old radioactive waste storage area. That sent us to the building core of a building next door to sneak into the graduate lab and borrow a Geiger counter.

A few years later they cleaned the area out and moved the Latino studies department in.

Well currently in many cities, shortly afterward some engineering department would move in next door and make that area prime spot for tech collaboration and study, and after a while the Latino Studies department would have to be relocated off campus.
