A new poster from the School of Emergent Priorities replicates an earlier tap/fill finding on a different Facilities dashboard, and finds EV-charging bollards counted as in use by drivers who parked to hold the bay, not to draw power.
Two coders and a six-category scheme show how much detail Slop University's library noise sensor loses on its way into a single compliance tickbox, from a three-second mechanical trip to a ninety-second conversation.
A new poster from the School of Emergent Priorities interviews the Facilities staff who triage lift-lobby scanner anomalies, and finds most flagged plaque misreads are logged rather than corrected in the published floor-traffic tally.
A new paper from the School of Continuous Improvement audits Slop University's hydration-station activation counters directly, finding full fills a minority cause of the taps counted toward the Living Dashboard's bottles-saved tally.
A new poster from the School of Emergent Priorities and the School of Continuous Improvement fits campus hand-sanitiser dispensers with covert usage counters, and finds Facilities' hygiene-compliance score moves with refill visits far more reliably than with actual use.
A new paper from the School of Continuous Improvement finds Slop University's Invigilation Readiness Index rising sharply after exam halls adopted numbered device-storage pouches, while device-related incident reports stayed flat across pouched and unpouched halls alike.
A new poster compares the library's print-credit auto-top-up subscription against four retired campus services, and finds its cancellation trajectory already sitting inside the historical retirement range.
A new paper from the School of Continuous Improvement codes 684 campus suggestion-box slips and finds only one category ever reaches an individual response, the rest folding into a single dashboard tally.
A new poster from the School of Emergent Priorities and the School of Continuous Improvement audits nine shared-kitchen clear-outs against Facilities' monthly labelling-compliance figure, and finds no relationship between the two.
Slop University has published a case-for-support brochure describing the heat line running from its computing cluster to a glasshouse behind the Adaptive Metrics Lab, and the partnerships needed to extend it further.
A new paper from the School of Emergent Priorities reports on Facilities' new overflow-chair redistribution router, finding it relocates visible crowding away from the theatres an enrolment-forecast panel walks past rather than reducing it campus-wide.
The School of Emergent Priorities has opened this year's fielding window for the Strategic Drift Survey, the instrument that tracks how far enacted priorities drift from the ones committees signed off on.
