Senior staff got a glimpse of the MacLean Hall renovations. We can't wait to welcome students back into this beautiful building! "Do more than what's written down. Strive for more." - Julio Molina-Pineda Julio is from Honduras and will graduate Saturday with a double major in biology and chemistry and a minor in mathematics. Biggest Academic Accomplishment: "I received 1st place for my oral presentation at the 2017 Arkansas Research Conference. Post-Grad Plans: "My main goals are to attend graduate school, achieve a doctorates degree, and serve my home country." “Find what you’re passionate about, unapologetically make that a priority, and take advantage of every opportunity placed in front of you.” - Emilie “Weave” Williams Weave is a senior from Keller, TX double majoring in Religion & Philosophy with a minor in Sociology. Something people would be surprised to know: A lot of my passion for diversity and interfaith work comes from growing up in a multiracial family. My brother is from Guatemala, my dad is half Syrian, and my mom and I are white. That upbringing really influenced not only how I see the world, but how I hope to see it in the future. Post-Grad Plans: I was accepted into Divinity School at Harvard and Yale. I eventually chose Harvard, where I will pursue a Master of Theological Studies. In addition, I’ve started working remotely for a nonprofit called Convergence on Campus based out of Boston editing columns and helping with social media. I plan to continue working with Convergence while in graduate school, and also hope to continue alumni leadership for Interfaith Youth Core. National College Decision Day, the deadline for high school seniors to choose which college they will attend, is TOMORROW! Have you committed to Ozarks yet? "I believe that Ozarks puts you in an environment to grow. They help take your ideas to the next step and are always open to help." - Ralph Jean-Pierre Jean-Pierre is a junior from Haiti majoring in business administration with minors in economics and creative writing. Biggest Academic Accomplishment: Internship at Clarksville Light and Water where I work with the management team to map, record and send reports to the technical manager about internet speeds. Post-Graduate Plans: I am looking into graduate schools to study energy or agriculture economics. After receiving a master's, I would love to work in banking or anything related with economics. Thank you to everyone who came out to Ozarks Fest! Video produced by RTV student Andrés Jiménez. Local musician Ryan Harmon will highlight First Friday in downtown Clarksville on May 3. Join us at 5 p.m. for live music and food trucks! Students enjoying Spadra Creek with Ozarks Outdoors! #ThisIsOzarks #StayNatural Dr. Knight's students are collecting bacteria from 14 day old armadillos. In this project, they are exploring the potential of genetically identical quadruplet armadillos for microbiome research by testing a hypothesis that continuous exposure to the mother's bacteria is important for the maintenance and health of her offspring's' microbiome. We expect that siblings raised with exposure will have more diverse microbiomes, grow faster and have higher resting metabolic rates than identical siblings raised in cleaner cages. Students in Chemistry II conducted a lab to determine the equilibrium constant of different solutions with a spectrometer. #OzarksCompass Students in a money and banking class are learning about basic investing principles while competing in a stock market simulation with live trading capabilities. #OzarksCompass Media Production II and Directing students had the opportunity to work with award-winning filmmaker and U of O alum Anthony Mariani. Professor Holder’s ceramics class was challenged to create a larger than life sized food item. We think the top of Edwin’s ice cream cone accomplished that! He is adding a coat of white slip to make his glaze colors brighter. 💜🍦 First day of the spring semester is in the books! 💜🦅📚 Blaze Your Own Trail (link to full video in bio) #ThisIsOzarks Perfect hammock weather! 🍁🍂 Snow day!! ❄️ Sunset hike to Hawksbill Crag! Did you know this location is the most photographed natural feature in Arkansas? How lucky are we to have this in our backyard? 🧡🍁 How does Ozarks capitalize on a beautiful Arkansas day? Celebrate Chapel outside! Paint Wars 💜💙💚💛
