This geocache will take you on a tour of the east side of the Edinboro University campus to see the art sculptures. It's up to you (and your imagination) to determine if they are good, bad or ugly.
For the most part, you will be looking for an identification plate somewhere near each sculpture.
I did talk to the campus police. No middle of the night geocaching.
The above coordinates will take you to the sculpture for the answer to “D”. Enjoy the walk and good luck.

PARKING: During this Covid time, hardly anyone is on campus and the police are not issuing tickets so you can park just about anywhere. Do be aware, some sidewalks are wide enough to drive on but are not driveways. Only the police/maintenance drive on them.
When classes resume, the police say the easiest thing to do is to go to their office and request a VISITOR'S PARKING PASS. They are free and you can park most anywhere, but DO NOT PARK IN AN “E” (employee) PARKING LOT. THE STUDENT “POLICE” WILL FIND YOUR CAR AND GIVE YOU A TICKET.
When classes resume, no parking passes are needed after 5:00 Monday – Friday and no passes are needed on the weekends. If you prefer and can find a spot, you could park on Meadville Street.

Now to the cache....the final coordinates are : N41 52.ABC W080 07.DEF
These are in order according to how they fit into the final coordinates....not necessarily a walking pattern.
A= N 41 52.216 W 080 07.276 (BFL)
I was working here when this sculpture was installed. We thot perhaps it was a duck, a whale or some sort of boat. No sign appeared, so we have no idea what it actually is. Any ideas?
How many cuts are in the upright stone?
B= N 41 52.316 W 080 07.056 (the Map)
Count the letters at the star.
C= N 41 52.222 W 080 07.299 “SUPER POWER”
Count the number of letters in the artists' name and subtract seven.
D= N 41 52.299 W 080 07.400 “STEEL TREE”
Count the number of letters in the artists' name and drop the one.
E= N 41 52.366 W 080 07.138 “THE FIGHTING SCOT” by Jim Prokell
Use the second number in the year of the dedication date.
F= N 41 52.184 W 080 07.134 “UNTITLED”
Count the number of letters in the artists' first name and subtract six.
(This one would be a problem for a wheelchair.)
