Science and Fun
Stephens’ Biology 181 class, led by Lois Bichler and other Natural Sciences faculty, traveled to Reis Biological Station in Steeleville, Mo., on Oct. 1-2, for a weekend of science and fun. While canoeing the Huzzah River, students collected data from the river on flow rate, pH, temperature and other factors that will be compiled into a report during class.

Those who attended were: Jamie Andes, Rebecca Brannon, Hephy Eniade, Paryn Freeman, Sela Freuler*, Jasmine Harris, Dina Kaissi, Brianna Leahy, Davielle McCoy, Emma Montgomery, Michelle Niewald, Kim Politte*, Elizabeth Porter*, Audrey Poyer, Tess Rice, D’Erikka Shaeffer, Cristina Stanley, Megan White, Chanecka Williams. Those not pictured are denoted with an asterisk.

Faculty Showings
Monica McMurry, dean of the School of Design and Fashion, and Bill Helvey, adjunct art instructor, showed their artwork in the Boone County Art Show on Oct. 9-10 during Artrageous Weekend in downtown Columbia. The show featured 300 works of art by Boone County residents and Columbia Art League members.

Monica’s piece, “Helter Skelter,” won third place in fibers and was selected to be part of the Boone County Bank show that runs through Oct. 30.

Helter Skelter

Bill entered and exhibited his artwork in two juried shows: “Summer VWs” oil painting (professional painting category), Boone County Art Show, Boone County Bank; and “Smokey Mountains” silver gelatin fine art photograph (professional division), Visions Annual Photography Show, Landmark Bank.

Macklanburg Playhouse
One of the greatest American dramas! This impressive play received the Drama Critics Award and helped to establish Arthur Miller among the first post-war playwrights. The Keller family is the center of this story that focuses on the father, Joe Keller, and the shop he ran to produce airplane parts during World War II . To tell much more about the plot of this play would destroy the electrifying conclusion, but an evening spent witnessing an Arthur Miller play is always a gift to any theatre-goer.
