Hey, looks like my thread grew by leaps and bounds while I was away! I refined my original list with Anne's suggested modifications. Also, in reference to Willard's question, it was the Landmark building behind Founder's Park. The one with the big antenna on the roof.

Sweet! How'd you manage that? I got up into the ceiling of Mcdonald Arena once, but I was afraid to venture out too far... I didn't want to fall through all the way down to the basketball court.

Also, as mentioned elsewhere, I finally beat the Book Rack building behind Heers. There were two ways up - a fire escape that started too far off the ground, and a ladder on the front of the building, facing the road. The more obvious way up was deemed too dangerous, but luckily some demolitionists came along and blew out all the windows, which provided easy access to the fire escape from the 2nd and 3rd floors.

Pretty easy really. Silentbob took me up. You just go up stairs, pick some VERY easy locks, and head up more stairs. I have to say it damn near gave me a heart attack to do though. I know the head of security from a long time ago, and he would love to see me in handcuffs.

Well I don't know squat about picking locks. When you say easy, how easy do you mean? Like credit card easy, or hair pin easy?

Awesome, thanks. Do you know if there's any way on the roof? I haven't been on campus much since I graduated, but there's still a lot of stuff I'd like to do there, if I ever go back.

Those doors are locked with bolt action locks. As much as I would love to see the roof, it's probably a good thing it isn't that easy. :roll:

Psst... Union Station... In Kansas City. Not the student Union.
