A Roundup of the Kreaverse
|
The trimester is well underway. With midterm assessments in progress, our students are absorbed in coursework, discussions, and collaborative work across disciplines. Faculty are also navigating a busy term of teaching, research, and projects, keeping the academic rhythm alive. Meanwhile, BOLT, the annual sports fest of School of Interwoven Arts and Sciences (SIAS), promises a weekend of athletic flair and camaraderie. Amid the rising summer warmth, both the campus and its scholars are ablaze with ideas, effort, and determination as this chapter of learning reaches its peak.
