Wow ! As a graduate of U of G, I'm impressed.

Same here.... and yes, that would be a fine addition to the U of G campus.

It's a giant beehive! Fun. I'm docking it one point for calling it "Bee Research Centre" when "Beesearch" is sitting right there

 

[interchange42]

Gorgeous, and encouraging (the cause is dear to me), whether you're a U of Goo grad or not!

Bee that it may, it looks like they lost a lot of those sweeping organic curves here. /sigh

 

[CanadianNational]

That first version was buzz-worthy. Pity it's been so reduced.

 

[AlvinofDiaspar]

Buzz off.

[alklay]

We have been stung.

 

[junctionist]

How disappointing. The original design was the bee's knees.

 

[UtakataNoAnnex]

...and not to drone on about it, but yeah. >.<

 

[Towered]

Typical.

Loving the sweet puns, not so much the redesign.
