are always there, like fluffy beasts sleeping on the sidewalks. And
they often outlast the students.

Irresponsible abandonment! Who is the guilty party here? Who is
the culprit that leaves helpless, tired old couches out to dry in
the Southland sun? Unprotected by the privacy of a roof, full of
holes and unloved by their mobile owners, these couches are
abandoned by society. We picture them here, to commemorate their
plight.
