As part of BYU's College of Life Sciences, there are 15 live aquariums in the basement of the Widtsoe building. They are built into the walls, and anyone who would like can wander down there and peek around. Some of the aquariums are empty, (or the fish are very good at hiding) but with 15 tanks there are still quite a few interesting things to look at. If you finding that you sit by the same certain someone every class period, but aren't sure how to expand your relationship, this is the sort of place that is easy to invite them to go and check out with you. It's close by, unitimidating, too public for NCMO, but private enough to have a good conversation. Plus there's all sorts of crazy fish.

If you get access to the top floor of the same building, there are thousands of lab mice as well. Because they are test subjects you can't just waltz in there, but I'd thought you all wanted to know FYI.
