Jai shows you 'The Fence' - "The longest tradition on campus!"

The Fence is both a CMU tradition and a work record. Each day the fence is painted with something different, advertising for clubs and all sorts of events. The only rule is that it cant be painted on until after 12pm and only until 6am in the morning.

The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.

You can't see quite well, but what? Walking what we're walking towards something called defense. It's actually the longest tradition that's been on campus. It's essentially a billboard on campus that keeps switching up everyday. What students do is they can paint this fence only between the hours of midnight and six AM, not a minute before. There's a new thing being on the fence, and people advertise the clubs or advantage, etcetera, etcetera and fun. It actually holds the record for the most hated object in the universe right now, and it's pretty cool space. Fun fact being that back in the old days, it used to be the meeting point between the boy's school on the girl's school at Carnegie Mellon. Hi. Twenty six on Carnegie Mellon always bumped up.
