Kim dozens of headlines tell the same story. Des moines has been ranked number one in a lot of categories Like Community pride, up and coming downtowns, and midsized city for home ownership. So we asked some political operatives to play a game. So tell me what order you think they would be. Put these top four cities for college grads, according to the finance Technology Company smartasset, in order. Austan, nashville. Kim thats true, des moines number three. Austin is number one. How about this one . Best cities for young professionals. I could see nashville being up there but i dont think its number one. No. I think raleigh is probably at the top. Close. Yeah, i think thats how it is. Well go with that. Ill choose des moines. Its number one. Kim des moines is number one. Surprised . I spent time in nashville and vanderbilts campus is gorgeous but it doesnt quite have the same quality of life, especially for the dollar, that you know i think ive seen here in des moines. Someone coming out and needing a lower cost of living while getting on their feet des moines definitely has that in the real estate.

Mark the Anderson Gallery at drake is hosting an exhibition examining the broad topic of globalization specifically , ethical issues surrounding how we navigate public spaces both real and on the internet. Outside the gallery is piece by an artist from ferguson, missouri. The hands are meant to emulate hands up, do not shoot. Mark inside work by professional artists fill most of the gallery next to the work of some new arrivals to the art world four homeless men. They wanted to fill out the papers, understand the cameras and get going. Mark Rachael Kreski is a senior in graphic design, and one of the students who went to the downtown homeless shelter to distribute disposable cameras to a dozen surprised clients. They may not have the strongest voice out there but we wanted to make sure theirs was heard. Mark they were told to document their lives they had 27 exposures to capture what they wanted. Many are landscape shots of their journeys downtown, and many are nicely composed. Men who turned in their cameras wanted to be heard and seen. And to be reduced to homelessness in everyones eyes is a terrible thing so it struck me how eager they were to show everyone they exist in other ways. Myself, given a disposable camera, i dont think half of them probably would have turned out great. So it was awesome to see their execution of it. Elizabeth in conjunction with this exhibit a public symposium , is being held on sunday in the Harmon Fine Arts Center at drake at 10 00 a. M. Its called ethics of new media.
