I got home a few days ago after spending five weeks in Brazil studying Ecology and Conservation Biology. Most days were spent doing fieldwork, but on the weekends we often took our rattling little van into Sao Paulo city and explored the museums, parks, and neighborhoods.

Walking around Princeton’s campus, we pass numerous large-scale sculptures on a daily basis. These artworks are convenient for becoming an impromptu playground for visiting or a striking backdrop for your Houseparties photos. If you’re like me, at least, you probably don’t stop to consider either the motivation behind these sculptures or the purpose that their Read more about Summer ABroad – Grace Singleton[…]
