    Behind the Scenes at the University of Minnesota
    (Journal of Opinions, Ideas & Essays (JOIE), 2013-08) Bloomfield, Victor
    Those of us in academia who are faculty, students, and "white collar" staff and administrators are familiar with offices, classrooms, and labs. But there are many other places in the university, where things are done that make our work possible, that we may never see. About a year and a half ago I began a project to photograph "behind the scenes", to see---and to show others---the people and operations that make our academic work possible.

    Poems and Photographs: Midwestern Hobbies Adjoin
    (Journal of Opinions, Ideas & Essays (JOIE), 2021-03-22) Bettin, Kristine
    I have collected and transcribed the poems of my great-aunt, Mary Anderson, for one reason: perhaps people will enjoy reading them. This world is suffering at the moment; there is a pandemic, businesses are closing, people are out of work and out of money, most of us are home-bound. We are all seeking solace in various places: some in literature, in music or in streaming movies, some are taking long walks, learning to cook, or starting new hobbies. An avid reader, I have found solace in Aunt Mary’s gentle, insightful and soothing poems.
