Hewitt –<\/i> This is an update on our three-day photo shoot. Today, Wednesday, we’re back in classrooms again shooting professors and students.<\/p>\n
In just a day and a half we’ve hit 30 Wabash classrooms. It’s interesting to note students seem to get a kick out of seeing the photographs. More than a few mentioned this morning they had come to the website and saw yesterday’s shots.<\/p>\n
See shots from Wednesday’s effort here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Personally, it was fascinating this morning to listen to English Professor Marc Hudson’s passion as he broke down poetry for a morning class. It was fascinating and fun watching Classics Professor Jeremy Hartnett bring an ancient language alive.<\/p>\n Hartnett divided his morning Latin class into teams and was giving each team a chance to translate a Latin sentence. Their were high fives and an occasional hoot as the teams competed. Hartnett awarded the winners a package of cookies.<\/p>\n It’s a tired cliche to talk about making learning fun – but football players high-fiving each other after correctly translating Latin is fun!<\/p>\n Tuesday – Howard W. Hewitt<\/i> – From time to time we need to update photos that we use in marketing materials for the College and for the College website.<\/p>\n We’re going to be spending a large part of this week ducking in and out of classrooms to shoot photos of Wabash professors and students in a classroom setting.<\/p>\n One of the fun side benefits is getting to absorb a little of the classroom discussion while we’re quietly doing our jobs. For instance, I listened in to some fascinating student discussion during Professor David Hadley’s freshman tutorial on political cartoons. The students had some strong opinions about what was appropriate and what was not on newspaper editorial pages.<\/p>\n But the students’ insight went beyond ‘political correctness." They also recognized economic pressures on a small newspaper might lead to different decisions on controversial cartoons than at a metropolitan newspaper.<\/p>\n Good stuff!<\/p>\n Here<\/a> is a photo album from our first day of shooting to give you an idea of what we’re doing. Here’s another set from Tuesday.<\/a><\/p>\n In photo above: Seniors Adam Hawkins and Allen Chatt lead discussion in Melissa Butler’s senior seminar in political science.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Howard W.

Director of Public Affairs Jim Amidon, Magazine Editor Steve Charles, and I, as web editor, will be visiting classes through Thursday. It’s not possible to get everyone in a three-day photo shoot, but if all goes well we’ll take pictures in more than 30 different classrooms.<\/p>\n
