John Salvest's work opens in New York
Work by John Salvest, Art, will be featured in an exhibition in New York May 18 through June 24 at Morgan Lehman Gallery. No Time For Sorrow explores the realm of sculpture through the evocative power of everyday materials. Business cards, wine corks, cigarette butts, chewing gum, slivers of soap and chalk nubs are used to create works that communicate personal realizations about time, mortality and the many paradoxes of the human condition.

Dr. Shivan Haran receives grant for his research
Dr. Shivan HaranDr. Shivan Haran, Engineering, has received a faculty research grant for his project titled Development of a real-time bio-monitoring system to monitor water toxicity. The project involves the design of a real-time bio-monitoring system based on measurement of clam gape (opening and closure of a clam) through the use of non-contact displacement transducers. Eventually, the study should provide the ability for real-time monitoring of the quality and safety of source water and watershed ecology through such a minimally invasive technique.
