I can't imagine being holed up in one of those seclusion rooms.

This gives a great view of the campus...

I love the clocktower at Met. It kind of reminds me of the cupola on top of the admin building at the Fernald School, just down the road.

I love the creepy, bluish light being cast onto that doorway. Nice shot.

When my mom was doing her psych training in nursing school, she trained in the Furcolo Building. I guess she spent a little time in the CTG, too. She says that Furcolo is where most of the newly admitted patients were placed while they underwent evaluation, and that the most severe cases were put in the CTG. It would have been awesome to see photos of inside the Furcolo, and to show them to my mom. She's got some pretty far out stories from the three months she spent there.

Awesome shot. It almost looks as if the Medical Building was photoshopped into the picture because it looks so out of place amidst all of the vegetation.

You people have very overactive imaginations. Mental patients in laundry chutes? Highly unlikely. I don't even think the hole is big enough to stuff a person into.

My mom did her rotation in psych nursing at Met back in the 60's when she was in nursing school. She said that while she was here, they held a sort of carnival for the patients in this courtyard.

You've got to love the lonely chairs.

This should be a wallpaper Motts. Or is that just my opinion?

You like those chairs, don't you?

Face? I don't see a face.....

O_O well, that's rather disturbing.... one of the vistors had an interesting sense of humor...

Indeed, that is sinister...

Why be an un supported rack when you can be a pirate's favorite treasure, a sunken chest!
