Where Time Doesn't Stand Still

Below are photos of four separate clocks in hallways on the same floor of a building on the north end of campus.  The photos were all taken within two minutes of each other.  None of the clocks show anywhere near the same time.  I won't identify the building but perhaps someone with a knowledge of theoretical physics can explain the time discrepancy.  Didn't Einstein say something about this phenomenon? 
Well, maybe Einstein can't help - according to the lyrics, anyway:

Could we average the four clocks on the theory that no clock can be off by more than 12 hours?
