Welcome To ATQ
Around The Quads Newspaper

Brooklyn College has a lot of new things around campus to talk about these days: a great new building filled with student services and —any day now—athletic and fitness facilities (take a look inside the West Quad Center); and we also have a new president. And then there's us—Around the Quads. We hope you've had time to read the printed version that arrived at your home or that you picked up on campus. The printed newsletter will come out every fall and spring, but our online version will regularly spotlight new stories and features. Not only is the ATQ online saving trees, it's also allowing us to get news and information to you faster—and hopefully, in lots of fun and interesting ways. So check in to ATQ frequently to see what's new!

The Adventures of Pumpkinhead

The Adventures of Pumpkinhead

"AM I THERE YET?"


When we left in print, Pumpkinhead was coasting on two wheels to Brooklyn College. The good news is Pumpkin is fit and cutting down on carbon emissions (see Tiny Footprints to find out how small Pumpkin's carbon footprint is just by riding a bike each day). The bad news is, Pumpkin doesn't wear a helmet.  +more
