Home - The Azores, Portugal
-
Date
-
2019
-
Description
-
I knew that when I decided to study abroad in Portugal that a trip to the Azores would be obligatory, as my great-grandparents left these islands in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean nearly a century ago. I was hit hard by emotions as I stepped off the plane. I was where my ancestors had lived, where they had laughed, where they had loved. I was walking in the same fields they had played in and were buried in. A place that should have seemed unfamiliar was the opposite of that; I was home.

Departmental Shell Collection
-
Description
-
The Biology Department Shell Collection is comprised of hundreds of shells from around the world that were collected, identified, and donated by various faculty, staff, and community members. A significant portion of the shells were donated by June Ross, biology professor emeritus, whose teaching career at Western spanned 37 years. The collection has been digitized in order to make it accessible to a broader audience. We hope that it will be used as a reference and a teaching tool for Biology students, the Western community, and the general public. The shells themselves are stored in the biology department and can be checked out with permission. Due to constantly evolving nomenclature, and the fact that some of these shells were identified many years ago, please contact the biology department at biologystockroom@wwu2.onmicrosoft.com if you believe there are errors.

Kioni Paniyiri (Town Festival) - Greece
-
Date
-
2014
-
Description
-
Our last official evening together as a group landed on the very special evening - Kioni's Paniyiri or town festival. A stage was built, the dancing circle cleared, food prepared, and lots of seating for the bustling, wildly entertaining evening of feasting on great food, dancing with the whole town, and laughing together. It was a wonderful way to say goodbye to the little village that we all fell in love with and to each other, after forming a close-knit bond in a short amount of time.
