Deer of Higher Learning

WNMU has apparently gotten some unofficial mascots. A herd of deer were outside the PD building as I was leaving my class this evening. It was quite a surprise! At least with them hanging out on campus I won't be hitting them on the highway.

The Enormous Turnip

In my liturature class at Western New Mexico, I have a number of assignments that I do. This week we were required to make a poster of a childrens book. Something that would stimulate an interest in the book, and then we then had to present it to children at a school. I designed my poster around the book The Enormous Turnip. It is a Russian folktale that I am very familiar with because there are a number of variations on the story, you could spend a good week reading them all to kids, and doing related projects around the stories. Well since I put in the work and made the poster, I decided to show it off. I was pleased with my results.
