Paint Your Own Pottery: Homecoming
Join us for a fun exploration of techniques in "painting" bisque. Pick your piece and illustrate your Cyclone Pride! We will have samples for inspiration but your own ideas are always welcome too. Studio fee is $4 for ISU and $5 for public to attend plus the cost of the bisque you select. Pottery will be fired within a week for you to pick up. Pre-registration with payment is not required but a call to reserve a spot is recommended.
Ceremony: Greenlee School Schwartz Award
Barbara Mack, an award-winning media law professor at Iowa State, will be honored as the 2013 winner of the James W. Schwartz Award for Distinguished Service to Journalism and Communication. A 1974 Iowa State graduate, Mack passed away unexpectedly in August 2012. Christine Romans, a 1993 ISU graduate and current CNN anchor, along with colleagues and former students of Barbara Mack, will honor her memory with personal comments at the event.

So how far should each of these elementary students go to win? Not recommended for young children.
