They started appearing on campus last week. The gnomes. Peaceful gnomes presiding over the grounds and the walkway between the buildings.And now they are proliferating.

Another appeared at my window this afternoon. Does he need to be brought inside?

Any information you may have as to their origin and significance – or more importantly about gnomic care and feeding – will be greatly appreciated. Your suggestions welcome. Thank you.
