People in hoodies and masks are on top of the Silver Center. They have removed the NYU flag on the top of the building and hung a banner from the western face of the building. More details as we find out what in the hell is going on.
12:37 – Looks like the banner reads, “Fuck Tuition Hikes.” TBNYU hasn’t taken credit, so it remains to be seen what’s happening. The guard I talked to in Silver had no idea what had happened.
12:56 – Actually, this probably isn’t a TBNYU stunt. Given the beeper activity, this looks like more Eucleian Society stuff.
1:27pm – We received a comment from a purported Eucleian Society member, using a seemingly fake e-mail address, that their Society is not involved with the banner protest. The e-mail came from the 5th floor of the 7 W. 12th St. building an NYU IP address. We are looking to talk to a member of the Society for more info: please e-mail us at nyulocaleditor@gmail.com.
More pics after the jump.
No more NYU flag!

Hm, but “Fuck Tuition Hikes” doesn’t seem like something that a revered literary secret society would say? I could be wrong.

Yeah, I have a hard time believing these aren’t coincidental. The Eucleian Society has a pretty long history.

Who else but TBNYU would be doing this? Woudn’t it make more sense if it was just TBNYU going by another name?
Stop!
