I think the new signs look like something you'd see at Disney World. I mean, who wouldn't want to ride the Cafe on the Quad? When I'm walking around campus the first things that I notice aren't the beautiful greenery or buildings, but those big, awkward signs.
However, I can't deny that they are very helpful in finding buildings where the name isn't very visible. The signs are definitely a positive thing to have on campus, but the idea should have been thought through better.

Well, I agree. As Plato would say the Idea of signs is one thing -- and a good thing for getting around in the physical world, even if it is only the world of appearance -- but the Appearance of the signs, well they are really pretty hideous. So much for preserving the beauty of the arboretum as the first item of note on the south side of campus.
