Finding a spider web on the UMass Amherst campus proved to be harder than anticipated. While walking around campus, I made sure to keep an eye out for any crevices or untouched places where a spider web may reside. At 12:00 PM on Thursday, a spider web was located near the Lewis Residential Hall main entrance on Thatcher Road. The stairs to the main entrance had black, barred side rails on either side. While standing on the first step, facing the Lewis House main entrance, a spiderweb was found on the stair railing to my right. This part of the railing was at the bottom of the stairs, where the end of the railing is tucked around itself. This part of the railing made an oval-shaped hole where a person would typically grasp the railing as they first start walking up the stairs. The spider web was tucked underneath the bent part of the railing, in between the oval-shaped hole; the spider web was enclosed on all sides by the railing.
