Student garden volunteers, UI organizations successfully complete circle of lifeMillions of people across the world are working hard to protect the environment and its people by “going green,” and groups across the University of Iowa campus are doing their part in the green movement. One particular group of students—in collaboration with IMU Food Services, the Office of Sustainability, Facilities Management, and the UI Environmental Coalition—tend to vegetables grown in a large garden on the west UI campus and delivered to the University for ingredients in meals. The student garden, which opened in April, runs on a “circle of life” model—the students grow the food, it is transported and used on campus, some of the scraps are composted, and the compost is used on the garden, along with compost donated from the Iowa City Landfill.
Photo feature: Making music in UCCThe UI School of Music continues to adapt to its post-flood situation. Most instrumental music studios and faculty offices are housed in a newly constructed space on the second floor of University Capitol Centre. This space includes practice rooms, chamber rehearsal rooms, and organ practice rooms. A new student recital hall and classroom also have been constructed on the first floor of the mall.
