Student art on exhibit in the Science and Engineering Building Gallery
Drawings by students in the Special Topics Drawing class taught by Avantika Bawa, assistant professor of fine art, are on exhibit in the Science and Engineering Building Gallery through Dec. 10. The works were informed by Edwin Abbot’s book “Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions.” The students also researched works by artists of the Constructivism, Suprematism and Minimalism movements to create works that are crisp, simple, relatively non-objective, yet formally rich and
visually engaging.

Explore the legacy of “The Well” in mainstream and LGBTQ visions of gender and sexuality
“The Well of Loneliness” by Radclyffe Hall was the target of a highly publicized obscenity trial, which led to the book being banned in Britain in 1928. The publicity surrounding the novel made its strikingly stylish author a lesbian icon.
Instructor of women’s studies Shawna Lipton will address the legacy of “The Well” in mainstream and LGBTQ visions of gender and sexuality and use materials from the Neil Richards Collection of Sexual and Gender Diversity to showcase multiple
editions and cover images of Radclyffe’s Hall’s most famous novel—and its subsequent influence on the lesbian pulp fiction of the 1950s and 1960s.
Public Safety will present information about what WSU’s response to a hostile intruder would be. Please feel free to enjoy your lunch during the presentation.
