GW once again is definitely closed Thursday, Feb 11. No classes, designated employees only need show up.
Twitteristas who were at the GW v GU snowball fight tonight were reporting that GW President Steven Knapp declared no classes after GW’s victory. We’re guessing the cancellation has more to do with DC being frozen to a standstill than with the awesome snowballing skills of GW students. But hey, we’ll take what we can get, right?
Well, I’m not sure how exactly these things are decided — but the Twitter hashtag #GWGUSnowdown is blowing up with celebratory victory claims in favor of GW.
Evidently GW President Steven Knapp showed up at the front lines as well, with a rallying cry of “No Classes!”
If any of you were there, give us the details in the comment section.
A bike-riding man flashed his junk at several groups of girls at GW this week, at least twice on Monday, then again on Wednesday — making this officially the most weinerful week FoBo has seen in a long time. GWPD (the apparently new acronym for UPD) reports that the suspect is an approximately 20-something-year old hispanic male wearing jeans and a (possibly) khaki jacket.
From that description, our best guess is that the guy looked something like Rick Astley, but hispanic. And on a bike.
Watch out. You don't want to get dick-rolled.
This isn’t quite as scary as a hammer-wielding nutjob, but I do wonder why it took GWPD all week to send out a message about these incidents.
Full GW InfoMail message below the cut.
This week the Historic Preservation Review Board considered granting historic landmark designation to five GW-campus apartment buildings and one office/studio, what appears to be a step-forward in GW’s greater plan of creating a special historic district around their FoBo campus. (DCMud)
The ANC is set to spend up to $3000 opposing a proposed nightclub near 21st and K. The reason: the owner’s other club, located next door, has “plagued the neighborhood with noise, public urination and vomiting.” Our ANC must hate Thurston Hall. (Washington Business Journal, GW Hatchet)
Late night metro riders heading out of Foggy Bottom dealt with routine track maintenance delays. (Get There)
The ANC also voted to support the contractor EastBanc, Inc.’s plans to redevelop the West End library and the fire station. The ANC seems to be impressed with the ample parking and lower density aspects of EastBanc’s plan. It’s not like there’s a metro just a couple blocks away, even if it does have delays. (GW Hatchet)
You know we’ve been super excited to see FoBoGro open. We’ve been waiting quite a while now — but there are signs everywhere that a new jolt of energy is about to hit F street. Soliciting applications for employees is certainly the smoke to the fire that is FoBoGro’s impending grand-opening (and that smoke smells good.)
Check out their website to find an application to work for the soon-coming grocer/lunch/alcohol spot. If I was still in college, you’d bet I’d be applying. From what we’ve heard, the work environment they’re trying to cultivate should make for a pretty cool place to work. Plus there’s food — you’ll have to wait for an interview with them to see if that means free lunch every now and then, but hey, worth a shot, right?
