The 'Physics Common Room' (officially, TPL 104, the "Ralph P. Winch Reading Room"; informally, the "PCR") is a student common space located on the first floor of the [[Thompson Physical Laboratories]]. Formerly a library, the PCR has been frequented by physics majors, [[Aristocows]], members of the [[Moocho Macho Moocow Marching Band]], [[WARPies]], Sindarin-speakers, and other [[Odd-Quad]]-types.
=== Contents ===
The room is dominated by an ancient wooden conference table cluttered with books, papers, fruits, water bottles, writing implements, and various toys. Student mailboxes and a shelf of old physics, math, chemistry, and GRE-prep books populate the east wall. The south wall has a large blackboard used for both academic work and student jokes, as well as a door to TPL 106. The west side of the room has couches, another bookshelf with course-related books, windows facing [[Eco Cafe]], and part of [[WARP]]'s board game collection. The north side has the rest of [[WARP]]'s board game collection, as well as a refrigerator, coffee maker, assorted coffee and tea, electric kettle, sink, and dishes.
=== Physics Snacks and Crocball ===
The Williams Society for Physics Students hosts snacks every Thursday at 10 pm in the PCR. But if one partakes in snacks, one must play crocball - an intense, sadistic eight-minute game that may involve '''ultimate shame'''.
