What's There
A bronze bust modeled on Harold Ramis appears in the university hallway near Erin Gilbert's office. The specific visual detail remains visible in the frame during ordinary playback when paused at this scene milestone.
Why It Matters
Ramis co-wrote the original Ghostbusters and played Egon Spengler; the unobtrusive campus memorial lets the reboot honor him without turning the tribute into a character cameo. This placement serves as deliberate narrative texture and cinematic continuity, rewarding attentive viewers while documenting recurring visual motifs across the filmmakers' catalog.
Source: the tribute was identified in TIME's release review and contemporary production coverage.
