As a biology major with a studio art minor, I wanted to combine both fields within my capstone to depict my topic: the beauty of dental variation. I am greatly interested in why teeth vary so much in anatomy and formation, biologically. I interviewed seven people with dental variations, about their dental experiences including the work they have had on their teeth over the years. The stories listed with each sculpture are pieced together from their interviews. The sculptures, however, depict my artistic interpretation of what their mouths and dentition would like look, had they never received any dental care, if their teeth had never righted themselves, or if their individual dentitions had proceeded along normal paths. Although there are obvious lapses in functionality of some teeth, other mouths carry a beauty unto themselves naturally, that has sometimes been removed. As someone about to enter the field of dental medicine, I feel it is important to recognize and continue to stay fascinated by the unique qualities, characteristics, and formation of human dental anatomy.

If two is better than one, then what does that make this Senior Experience?

At Lawrence, every graduating senior plans and executes a significant project or Senior Experience. For Eduardo Elizondo Rueda ’16, that meant 3-D printing a headset that will record thoughts in the form of electroencephalograms (EEGs, or brainwaves)! To create the headset, Eduardo used Lawrence’s Interdisciplinary Makerspace for Engaged Learning. This newly created space provides students with a collaborative learning environment and hands-on learning opportunities, allowing Lawrentians to take their concepts from idea to reality. The Lawrence University Interdisciplinary Makerspace for Engaged Learning was generously funded by an Associated Colleges of the Midwest Faculty Career Enhancement grant.

my school does a program the last three weeks of senior year called senior experience and it’s an internship and it starts at the end of the month so i’m supposed to call my sponsor today but like i have to CALL HER and i’ve never met her before and i’m freaking out, i don’t want to do this, i’m praying i get her voicemail, and i’m having serious trouble with talking myself into actually picking up the phone and dialing (but like i have so many questions and i’m so nervous about both the internship and the call and i don’t really want to do either?? but i have to and ugh)

“From the beginning this has been a huge collaborative effort." The latest Lawrence Minute features Thomas Sasani ’15 sharing his senior experience project.

Here We Go!

I closed Children of Eden on Sunday and I can't really put into words what that meant to me. Maybe I'll get around to writing about it. Flew out to New York on Monday and spent the plane ride and my first day fighting off some sort of fiery throat cough. Woke up today with killer cramps and a leftover cough. I think I sang through some sort of illness closing night and really wreaked my voice a little so I'm struggling through it right now. Showcase is on Wednesday/Thursday, and I'm hoping to write some updates while I'm here for 2 weeks. This is an important week of my life that I really want to share!
