NATURE'S WAY
by Lakin Khan
Onward, Owls!
...Barn owls are magnificent birds with wide, flat, circular faces that act like a satellite dish, collecting sound and shunting it to their hidden ears, which are offset, one higher, one lower. This gives them the ability to triangulate sounds, pinpointing the source with deadly accuracy.More Nature's Way

A Thousand Words
Curated by Library assistant and graduate student Darren Sargent, the current exhibit in the University Library Art Gallery features the work of both two and three dimensional artists who have created pieces objectifying the book and in so doing make it an aesthetic or conceptual component in their work.
Each artist uses the image of the book itself as the conveyor of communication.
The show
runs through Oct. 28. Full Story
