An installation "Waiting for the Extraordinary" by the artist Mark Dion on campus. It was first created in 2011 and looked quite a bit different, and been re-instlled by the artist in a different shape now. Here is the link to the description of the current one: http://umma.umich.edu/events/4044/mark-dion-waiting-extraordinary
