The Comp Program Writing Lab is holding drop-in workshops alongside WR 199 students; this week's topic is FINAL TOUCHES! What do I need to polish or change before I submit my major assignments? How can I write more effective intros and conclusions?
All students currently enrolled in WR 121z, 122z, or 123 are invited to join us for help with these questions and more! RSVP encouraged (but not required!): WritingLab@uoregon.edu. Email us your name and which workshop(s) you plan to attend.

An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box.
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com

Art as Evidence: The technical study and scientific examination of works of art
The scientific study of works of art addresses questions related to conservation (material identification, degradation processes, compatibility of treatment methods), curatorial (artist’s technique, workshop practice, attribution/provenance), or material (physical properties and behavior) issues. Answering these questions frequently requires detailed analyses of cultural heritage materials and the reconstruction of historic technologies. The precious nature of works of art creates unique analytical challenges, often necessitating the development of new analytical approaches or specialized instrumentation. A premium is placed on those techniques that either can be used completely non-invasively (i.e., without the removal of any sample, such as X-ray fluorescence and Raman spectroscopies), or can provide new and vital information with the removal of only minimal amounts of material (such as trace analysis via inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) or chemical state information via X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES)). Underlying all the work is the common goal of furthering the understanding of the materials and methods used in the creation, interpretation and conservation of works of art. This talk will present examples of research focused on objects in the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum, ranging from Egyptian mummies to medieval manuscripts, to Italian gilded panel paintings, to 19th century French drawings, to paintings by Rembrandt and Van Gogh.
