| − | [http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view/imn2 Ian Nesbitt '13] is a rising junior Geosciences major (also [[JA]]'15 of [[Mills]] 2) who loves the outdoors. He can often be seen skiing, cycling, making geoscientific calculations, driving [[Nordic Ski Team|Nordic team]] vans, driving the [[WOC]] van, running, or inhabiting Schow's GIS lab.

| − | Ian claims he is Williams' most knowledgable current student on the legendary [[steam tunnel]] system that exists beneath many centralized buildings on campus, in order to allow [[Facilities]] greater access to various valve shutoff points. He has sworn that with great power comes great responsibility when it comes to this matter, but he will not hesitate to tell what there is to know about the tunnels if asked. Ian has traversed most of the tunnels legally, having been accompanied by an Environmental Safety officer from Facilities.

| − | * [http://i438.photobucket.com/albums/qq102/iNezy13/IMAG0117.jpg Clark - West] Underneath the manhole cover to the northwest of Clark Hall, looking east towards West Hall.

| − | * [http://i438.photobucket.com/albums/qq102/iNezy13/IMAG0119.jpg Clark - Bronfman] — Underneath the West Side of Clark Hall, looking south towards the ladder down to the basement mechanical room in Bronfman.

| − | * [http://i438.photobucket.com/albums/qq102/iNezy13/IMAG0120.jpg Service Ladder] — Looking down the sevice ladder into Bronfman basement mechanical room.
| |
| − | * [http://i438.photobucket.com/albums/qq102/iNezy13/IMAG0007.jpg Sage - Chapin Tunnel] — A strange and isolated tunnel connection between the Sage Hall mechanical room and a similar entity in the basement of Chapin. This rather blurry photo was taken from the Sage mechanical room looking ENE towards the Chapin mechanical room. Tom Mahar from Facilities believes this isolated tunnel was created in order to more easily shut Paresky off from the rest of the grid, though curiously no member of Facilities is completely sure why it is there.
| |
| − | * [http://i438.photobucket.com/albums/qq102/iNezy13/IMAG0105.jpg Sawyer] The Sawyer mechanical room is located directly under the east entrance on the Sawyer side. Seen here is the large steam connection that heats the building. Note that no tunnel exists here, despite the North Tunnel's close proximity to the building (a few feet away).

| − | * [http://i438.photobucket.com/albums/qq102/iNezy13/ChampmanRinkThermal.jpg Rink Thermal Image, taken 05/09/2011] — a thermal air image taken from a Robinson R22 helicopter on May 9, 2011 of the Lansing-Chapman Rink complex. The photo shows a steam line’s thermal signature on the ground, resulting from damaged insulation. Obtained from the Sustainability office (Todd Holland).<sup>[[#References|1]]</sup>

| − | === Maps ===
| |
| − | The following was written by Ian in his final paper for GEOS 214 as a disclaimer to those trying to access maps for illegitimate reasons.

| − | <blockquote>"Though I do have maps in my possession, I prefer not to give them out unless I receive written need. This is not because I like keeping y'all down. This is because Dave Boyer would probably bring all of Security down on my head if I did share this information. Please email me at [http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view/imn2 imn2] in order for me to determine if you really do need these maps."<ref>Ian Nesbitt, ''Williams College Steam Tunnels.''
