Proceeding to the right of our bezel, we have Stata, Walker, and the Green building as quintessentially recognized MIT buildings. In the bezel, the hack spells MIT’s traditionally ambiguous acronym, IHTFP. Above the banners and below the 2020 plaque are two hackers who know that one should never hack alone while setting up the eye chart hack that introduced us to MIT on the first day of our freshman year. To the right of the tent, there are three banners around the Lobby 10 pillars, emblematic of the opportunities for open discourses as well as the safe spaces for a diversity of opinions fostered in and around MIT’s student body. At the end of the bridge, a tent welcomes the user, much like convocation, One World, and many other MIT celebrations do for our student body. Binary in the railings of the bridge spells out “.5 2 HE,” an ambiguous reference potentially indicating that our trip across the bridge is a journey taken either “halfway to heaven” or “halfway to hell”. The Massachusetts Avenue bridge displays the 153rd smoot mark to herald that we are the 153rd graduating class. The beaver sits upon a dam of branches where Pi is inscribed, a tribute to the memorable date when many of us were officially admitted to MIT.įalling off of the dam and into the river are 8 ivy leaves and a pinecone, symbolic of those who have fallen beneath the engineering prestige of MIT. Instead of proffering the typical representation, the globe the beaver offers to the wearer exhibits Pangaea, symbolizing the diversity of our student body and the notion that although we are all from different places both domestic and international, we make up and stand for one world. The beaver, sporting its very own Brass Rat, unifies itself with our class and simultaneously presents in his right hand a representation of our unified world. Sitting atop the Great Dome are two Hackers.The bezel of the 2020 Brass Rat features MIT’s iconic mascot, the beaver, at the heart of the MIT-Boston landscape. Lobby 10 are two massive trees as a reminder of the nature Killian Court provides on Weiss’ winning of the Nobel Prize in Physics our freshman fall. On the grass of Killian Court are two gravitational waves to celebrate Rainer Major on campus with omitted ticks for the courses that have since been canceled orĪbsolved. At the top of the insignia is a ruler with a tick for every Kerberos stands behind a podium madeįrom the nuts-and-bolts insignia. Of MIT as well as the namesake for our emails. Kerberos serves as a protector for the students Kerberos sits at the front of the Class Shank guarding the Of the Great Dome used to be featured on both sides of the ring until the Class Seal The Class Shank has been tradition since the beginning of the Brass Rat. The clock in Custom House Tower reads ‘Tau Time,’ the time when acceptances to the Institute are released One Dalton is shown with a crane to represent the constant construction occurring in Boston. The triangle of the Citgo is replaced with a spade, a common motif for our class. Of one of the brownstones are party goers to show the experience of crossing the bridge for On the Boston side are brownstones, the Citgo Sign, the Boston Clock Tower, the Prudential Center, and One Dalton. Numerous outdoor activities that occur during the warmer months in Boston. On the Charles are a sailboat and dock depicting Between Cambridge and Boston is the Longfellow Bridge with a passing Red Line The Green Building features Tetris blocks that write out “21”, a tribute to the famous hack on the building. The center door of Lobby 10 is left open- we will always be able to Hose to show the dichotomy between what the public thinks MIT students do and what weĪctually do. In MIT.nano, a working scientist is pictured above a student fighting a fire Wears a medal to celebrate our athletic victories. On the Cambridge side are Kresge, the Chapel,Īlchemist, Building 10, MIT.nano, Walker Memorial, Green Building, and Stata. Which occurred during our first days of freshman year. To represent the school up the street that we both rival and collaborate with. The bridge behind the beaver is metal as in real life, while the remainder is wood to show the beaver’s fabricator spirit and ingenuity as ‘nature’sīox with "P&T" for our maker spirit and “punt and tool” and an ivy leaf Is the number 21 and in its tail is IHTFP. His own Brass Rat, walking towards Boston and the future.
