Beaver Near the Lyman Lakes!
Miyuki Mihira
These are photos of a beaver taken near the Lyman Lakes on campus. It's extremely rare to see beavers on campus due to people. However, because of the much fewer number of people on campus, the photographer for the first time came across this small creature in the late afternoon on the way to the Arboretum.

Friday Flower during COVID-19
Skylar Yu
Most students have already left the campus. It was the first Friday in the spring term. Friday flower became such a "normal" weekly event on campus, but not now. None of the students would expect these flowers on that day, and even students on campus did not expect to see any flowers in Sayles on that day. The flower in every mailbox means love to me. Even though we are not going to see each other for quite a long time, we still love and remember each other. Many people are going through a tough period of time, and these flowers also represent courage, encouraging people to stay strong, cherishing the hope and love to the world.
