Hit and Run!

Hit and Run is a screen printing crew who came to Oxy on Tuesday to celebrate the Reinventing the Academic Commons project taking place in the Clapp Library. If you're not an Oxy student, or if you're an Oxy student who has been living under a rock, the Reinventing the Academic Commons project is the effort being made by the administration to evolve the main library into a more cohesive and effective location for maximum learning and flow of information. Take a peek inside the main floor and you'll notice they did some construction over the summer to create a better space for the computers in front of Brown Lab. Yay for learning!

The event took place on the patio outside the library from 1-5pm on Tuesday, September 14th. The crew set up their equipment and the first 200 people who arrived were lucky enough to get a free t-shirt that Hit and Run printed onto. People also had the option to bring their own t-shirt, tote bag, pillowcase, etc. The images being printed were designed by the Hit and Run crew, and varied from the Occidental College crest to abstract, modern amoeba-looking creatures. Everyone had the option to choose up to 3 images per item. This was such a cool event because although people were getting similar designs, they were able to keep their t-shirt totally unique by choosing the placement of the images and even overlapping.
