Is the Wyman Park Building part of the campus? I don't remember it at all. If you were wiping your ass in Wyman Park, or probably anywhere else around Hopkins, you're lucky all you got was poison ivy and not SUPERAIDS. Thinking about this has given me a nostalgic hankering for a CC Carryout cheesesteak. Gabe – I must be really old. Is the Wyman Park Building part of the campus? I don’t remember it at all.

(with all of its bathrooming facilities locked) Being a recent transplant from the West Coast, I was not immediately acquainted with the more dangerous fauna of the East Coast. To make a long story short, grabbed the wrong kind of leaves. No joke. The worse part was even though the very understanding nurse practitioner at the Health and Wellness center gave me a prescription for a reasonably effective steroid cream, they didn´t have it at the pharmacy in the Wyman Park Building and I ended up having to walk all the way to the rotunda, grimacing with every slide of cheek across cheek. At least I got out of a week`s worth of cross country practices.

My reaction was weak to begin with and it's already almost gone. It’s just a touch of it on the opposite site of my elbow. My reaction was weak to begin with and it’s already almost gone.
