Happy Earth Day! 🌎 this semester’s ecology students, Bekah Chelikowsky and Gil Brown, planted an autumn fire maple tree today with the help of Dr. Taylor and MNU Facilities staff. You can find the tree right in front of the parking circle. Thanks, ecology class! ✌🏼🌳

Dr. Speicher’s Organismal Biology class spent Wired Wednesday dissecting fetal pigs 🐷 ✨to investigate possible causes of death. As part of the lab, students identified anatomical structures, weighed organs, and studied internal body systems, gaining valuable hands-on experience with comparative anatomy and organismal function!🫀🫁🧠
