Pasting from Bostonist: More MITardis: Doctor Who vs. Harvard?:
• • • • •
Earlier today, we posted photographs of the scifi cult object that recently appeared on the roof of MIT building 7. After a closer inspection of the images, we have deciphered the text on the left door:
HACKER TELEPHONE
FREE FOR USE OF
HACKERS
ADVICE & ASSISTANCE
NOT REALLY OBTAINABLE
JACK & JAMES
MAY RESPOND TO CALLS
DO NOT OPEN
We’ve also learned, from Eric Schmiedl’s gorgeous nighttime photographs, that the TARDIS lights up at night.
The blue box, when it initially materialized at MIT, seems to have been accompanied by a banner declaring the score:
THE DOCTOR – 1
HAHVAHD – 0
We know (because we’re nerds) that the Doctor has longstanding feuds with the Master, Sontarans, Cybermen, Daleks, the Rani, and the Ice Warriors, and he owes Casanova a chicken, but—what sort of conflict does he have with Harvard University?

UPDATE: After The Doctor’s visit to MIT, a Dalek showed up, too.
