Every spring, the College of Applied and Natural Sciences (ANS) gathers to celebrate achievements in research from faculty and students in each ANS unit.
Traditionally, ANS Day has included oral and poster presentations; a lunch; and the distribution of awards to our outstanding students, faculty, and staff.
“Last year, COVID-19 prevented us from gathering in-person for this event,” said Dr. Gary Kennedy, ANS Dean. “Though we were still able to share these accolades via email, we missed the camaraderie that makes ANS a home for so many.”
This year, despite the challenges and the difference in venue, students, faculty, and staff gathered again for this cherished tradition.

On Friday night, while many performances were cancelled following the death of Prince Philip, the Royal Opera House, went ahead with the streamed premiere of two satirical works by Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill.
While some might feel that the company’s decision was disrespectful, I think the ROH did the right thing. Not only did they offer an on-screen tribute and a minute’s silence, I reckon the Duke of Edinburgh, who was well-known for finding opera a tremendous bore, might have enjoyed the theatrical flair of these shows and the hit songs.

Robin Musson – ‘Proof that you don t have to be a bastard to get on’
Rear-Admiral Robin Musson,who has died aged 81, won relief for seagoers from the payment of the poll tax, and later became head of his profession.
As captain of HMS Cochrane, 1988–90, the naval shore establishment at Rosyth, Musson was also flag captain to the Flag Officer Scotland and Northern Ireland, Vice-Admiral Sir Jock Slater. At their first meeting, Slater told Musson to focus on the unwelcome proposal that seagoers based in Scotland were expected to pay a proposed poll tax even when at sea.
Musson decided to invite Fife’s community charge registration officer to lunch. He had been warned that the man was a communist, but for that reason Musson thought he was just the man to sympathise with the sailors’ lot. When Musson explained the issue, the man exclaimed: “It’s my responsibility to decide who pays, not those b s in London!”
