Greetings Art Meets Science participants!
Though many of us were tired during yesterday’s class, there is clearly also a great energy building around each of your projects as your ideas, creations, and blog sites are rapidly developing in creative and engaging ways. We are looking forward to sharing your work with others!
Below are reminders of some upcoming deadlines and activities for the class.
As always, please let us know if you have questions.
Julie & Robert
Thursday — Field trip!
Museum of Natural & Cultural History
Please meet at the Museum of Natural & Cultural History on campus rather than in our classroom space. The museum is on 15th Avenue between Knight Law School & Global Scholars Hall, right across the street from the Bean complex. If you need further directions or want an initial introduction to the museum before our visit, please go to their website at http://natural-history.uoregon.edu/
Also, on Thursday, you will need to turn in Report 4, the draft of your final paper. Reminder of the parameters for this paper are at https://blogs.uoregon.edu/aad199artmeetsscience/resources/assignment-resources/report-4/. Questions to be addressed in this report and a suggestion of an outline to this paper are offered. Remember that this report is the next iteration of Reports 2-3. The final version of this will be due next week (Report 5). Remember to cite your annotated bibliography sources as well as support from course readings.
Final Exhibit Presentation — Week 10
Keep working on your exhibit development process in preparation for next Thursday’s final presentation. A reminder that your work will be shared with faculty, staff, and students throughout the UO via First-Year Programs, Arts & Administration, Teaching & Learning Center, all guests and field trip experiences we have had, and so forth. Make certain you have a strong blog and presentation that you are ready to share publicly with others.

Questions about UO Blogs and setting up widgets or other details within your site can be directed to Kelsey Lunsman at kdavis2@uoregon.edu
Journal entry: What did you learn about your project through this review and self-assessment (Creative Display 2 presentation)? What are your project’s strengths? Weaknesses? What are opportunities you can build on? What may be threatening to or risking the best outcomes for the project? What will you do to further your project in the next week? (Journal #21).

We’ve been asked to share the following important notice with you.
UO “Get the Vax” Clinic at Matthew Knight Arena, March 2-5.
The UO VAX clinic will continue through Thursday at Mathew Knight Arena; hours are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
Students can also visit Safeway, Albertsons, or Walgreens pharmacies.
Of note:
- If students received a meningitis vaccine before October 2014, they are NOT covered for current meningitis strain.
- Starting March 2, insurance will be direct billed from one of the UO sponsored clinics at Albertsons, Safeway, Walgreens or Matthew Knight Arena, and no charges will made against student accounts.
- If students are uninsured, there is donated vaccine so all students will have access if they visit the Matthew Knight Arena clinic.
