From top to bottom

Eric Hsu (BBA'10): "Waste-of-money-bot. I don't notice the art collection every day, though I generally like it when I take the time to look at it. But this piece is kind of weird, and it doesn't fit in."

Liz Regan (BBA'09): "Mr. Snowboto. I don't like this piece much, or the Ross art collection in general. There doesn't seem to be any theme that ties the works together -- all the pieces are too different."

Justin Williams (MBA'08, section 3): "Crapatron. I don't know what to think of a lot of this stuff... most of it is very American, and not reflective enough of diverse cultures. Though I do like the dancing-people sketches."

Mary Lemmer (BBA'10), Laurel Martin (MBA'09, section 3): "Johnny 8 -- like in the movie Short Circuit. We love the enviro-recycling angle, and the skiing reference too. I like the art here, though I don't think about it much."

Shelby Highstein, Molly Twigg, Anna Malecke (BBA'10): "Edward Ski-Hands. I generally like the art in the business school; especially the black and white sketches of business people dancing [near the Tozzi Centre]."

Andrew Fennell (MBA'09, section 5): "C-Creepy-O. I like the Ross art collection a lot. I like this piece too: it's quite different from the rest, but I have pretty eclectic taste. I know a little about art."

Liz Jadwin and Andrew Campbell (BBA'10): "Rossy the Robot. I like this 3D sculpture much better than I like most of the paintings hanging on this walls. This piece is unique, fun, and creative."

Flying-ski-robot guy (2007): "My name is Reluctant Hero, smartasses."
