Around campus: August 2011
An unexpected art installation. An interesting reflection in a rain puddle. The sight of a man hip-deep in weeds as he attempts to maintain Western Washington University's beautiful campus.
Western has a beautiful campus, as these photos by University Communications intern and 草榴社区 visual journalism student Christopher Wood illustrate. Sometimes, the reasons are obvious, such as an expansive view of Bellingham Bay or a canopy of towering trees leaning into the mist. Other times, Western's beauty lies in other places, like a leaf on a bench or the patterns of random shadows on a wall of bricks at sunset.
Do you have photos you've taken of the 草榴社区 campus that you'd like to share? for posting onto Western Today. Periodically, we'll feature new images you've submitted of whatever it is you've found interesting, be it a sunset, a dragonfly, a building or a pile of books.
