This key-port switch somehow controls the roof access door. Note that the screws are exposed; you could take this apart easily. (From Exploring Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI))

The roof access is slightly more complicated than just pushing the door open. Note the electromagnetic lock in the upper left corner of hte door. You'll at least need a screwdriver. (From Exploring Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI))

CII 2nd Floor Men's - Again, the bathroom's condition tells us volumes about the neglect which it has almost certainly suffered. Perhaps this bathroom's neglect is part of a destructive cycle, such that the bathroom is unused because of it's condition, and uncleaned because it's used less. On the other hand, it's still being used, and just maintained far less than more popular bathrooms. (From RPI Bathroom Review)

CII 2nd Floor Men's - This picture highlights three issues with this bathroom: (1) the inadequate ventilation, (2) inadequate fire suppression (sprinkler) equipment, and (3) a strangely placed GFCI outlet above the mirror. The tiny vent is for a tiny room, and also the outlet is placed somewhere that makes it almost useless. (From RPI Bathroom Review)

CII 2nd Floor Men's - One redeeming feature of this bathroom is the "kiddy urinal", which is located far lower than is necessary at an institute such as RPI, whose primary bathroom users will be adults. Still, the accesibility of this bathroom is nice as not only are the toilets handicap-ready, the urinals are midget-ready. (From RPI Bathroom Review)

CII 2nd Floor Men's - Entering this mysterious and under-used bathroom in the Low building, near the DCC's "spiral stairs", we immediately notice some signs of neglect in this bathroom: let's start with the paper towel dispenser which has been tagged with sticker-fiti (sticker-graffiti). Notice also the soap dispenser which has been broken off the wall and laid to rest. Someone should have addressed this already -- people need soap to wash their hands properly. This bathroom is not off to a good start. (From RPI Bathroom Review)
