Kristin Ladd Library Exhibit

During the month of April, USU's Student Sustainability Office is putting on events all around campus to help students learn how to live more sustainably, connect with their community, and discover the new and fresh. As part of this, their Campus Outreach intern, Kristin Ladd with the help of the English Department, the May Swenson Project, and the Special Collections' staff, has designed an exhibit for Merrill-Cazier's Special Collections & Archives window displays in the basement of the library entitled "See Yourself in the Wild." The exhibit focuses on the three nature-writing authors: Jack London, Gary Snyder, and May Swenson to highlight their special connections to USU and to conservation through the power of writing and narrative. The exhibit also explores topics of gender, photography, and the wilderness so that students can discover new ways to see their natural surroundings and themselves. Once you've stopped by, check out the exhibit just about the Special Collections to learn more about the wilderness and inspire yourself to get outdoors this month! Stop by some time and see yourself in the wild!
