<p>One of my friends is scared about staying in Brittany...because she's terrified of anything to do with ghosts! Especially after hearing the ghost stays close to freshmen dorms.</p>
<p>So any personal stories from current students about this so-called ghost?</p>
<p>If you google the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire, she’ll never want to step in the Brown Building of Science ever again.</p>

<ul>
<li><p>the brown building is the site of the death of hundreds of women who leapt out the windows or were suffocated, burned, or trampled to death</p></li>
<li><p>our entire campus covers an ancient indian burial ground</p></li>
<li><p>several people have killed themselves by leaping off the top of the library into the atrium below</p></li>
<li><p>recent construction in the park uncovered a gravestone from 1799. historians estimate there are many more</p></li>
<li><p>the really old tree on the west side of the park was used for centuries to hang people</p></li>
</ul>
<p>If you don’t like creepy stuff, don’t come to NYU. For the record, my dorm is next to Bellevue Mental Asylum, which is interesting… :p</p>
<p>Alix is right. </p>
<p>New York is full of ghosts. We just build over everything.</p>
<p>Whoa I never knew that about NYU! That’s pretty awesome 
Well, at least it is in my mind. I’m kind of into morbid things… :P</p>
