University Art Gallery presents “Flat Earth Unfolded”
The University Art Gallery presents Flat Earth Unfolded (Oct. 17-Dec. 12), an installation by sculpture and new media artist Greg Pond, artist and musician Jesse Thompson, and ceramicist Archie Stapleton. Flat Earth Unfolded brings together disparate media to explore the materiality of sound—sound as sculpture, treated and experienced as a tactile, spatial medium. Ceramic vessels and stainless steel plates become acoustic structures that resonate with music composed for the exhibition and tuned to the materials.
Regents increase student-run endowment management fund, Bloomberg terminals add research support
The student-run Investment Club’s first-year performance was good enough that Sewanee's Board of Regents has now placed an additional $200,000 under the club’s management. Including the first-year return on the original funding, the club now manages just over $500,000 of the endowment. And as the club takes on the additional responsibility, its members will have a powerful new tool to aid their investment decisions: access to the Bloomberg Professional Service platform that is used by many of the top investment management firms and stock traders.
