A few artists to take a look at, in no particular order: Dina Litovsky, Robert Frank, Valerie Jardin, Henri Cartier-Bresson. Some thoughts on photography ethics: https://bit.ly/bc-street
You. All of you.
If you are looking to transfer, the first person to talk to is your academic advisor. I wish you all the best, but will miss you!
I thought I’d ask all my helpers for their best joke. Here is what they said:
I’m partial to Level 3, because it is my home. But Level 5 is serene with great study spaces and a view, Level 4 has wonderful literature, Level 2 has the Digital Studio (check it out!) and did you know Level 1 has a working seismograph?

If you were meaning to draw an image of the Loch Ness Monster here then that is an excellent likeness of Nessie! Those sightings are certainly quite exciting. It would be even more exciting if there were Loch Ness Monster babies(Lochni!) as your drawing and comment seem to suggest!

My Library helpers and their colleagues have some recommendations for your senior year bucket list:
Have fun working through the list!
While the Answer Wall may know many things, this is not something the Answer Wall knows how to do. To further your quest, I would recommend contacting Nicholas Cage for advice.
