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 Military Marching Band, WARPies, Sindarin-speakers, and other Odd Quad-types.
