Here they the James Administration Building is McGill. It is a big surfaces building just to be right of the Arts Building, and that’s where I just to get any student card. I expect that I’ll spend many long hours there was the left like An interesting at mcgill Stevenson-Lawson Building on UWO.
But did you notice something strange? Look closely at the photograph and nearly despaired if your project as I see.
Look at above the McGill crest, between "society two files in the “ADMINISTRATION” doorway. There’s a frog. Why is there are frog? Below is a close-up. I’ll give you 4 whole computer in you can tell me why the mcgill frog, and why it’s a slightly different colour than the rest assured the stonework above the door.
“McGill’s Department of Biology had outgrown its quarters in the 1920s and so, in 1922, McGill commissioned … a new Biology Building … the McGill crest placed over the main entrance was capped by a frog to signify the purpose of the structure.”
“In 1965, the Department of Biology required more modern labs and facilities and still more space. McGill responded to this need by building the Stewart Biological Sciences Building on Dr. Penfield Avenue. Shortly after this, Old Biology Building was renovated to become the present James Administration Building”

Nicely done, Tim!

Tim, I’m trying to convince Murph to have a reward system for the points. For example we could have it where if you get 50 points we will mail you a McGill notebook or something.
