"Faith is a Trampoline"In January 2006, the Woodruffs seemed to have it all—a happy marriage and four beautiful children. Lee was a public relations executive and Bob had just been named co-anchor of ABC's World News Tonight. Then, while Bob was embedded with the military in Iraq, an improvised explosive device went off near the tank he was riding in. He and his cameraman were hit, and Bob suffered a traumatic brain injury that nearly killed him.Bob and Lee's lives came together, were blown apart, and then were miraculously put together again— and they persevered, with grit but also with humor, through intense trauma and fear.Colgate University is an independent liberal arts institution that had its genesis in the American Protestant tradition. We carry this heritage forward in the work and worship of University Church, with gratitude for our founders, who saw no discrepancy between a life of faith and the pursuit of truth and learning. University Church strives to be a diverse Christian community of worship, sacrament, service, prayers, and intellectual engagement. All are welcome!Livestream is available here. - Apr 288:30 PMCatholic MassToday's Events | Colgate Memorial Chapel
All are invited to join the Colgate Newman Community for Catholic Mass. - Apr 29All dayEclipse ArtToday's Events | Ho Science Center
In 2017, Kristen T. Woodward was able to witness a total solar eclipse in Knoxville, Tennessee, and was moved by the dramatic planetary display. She is looking forward to viewing another eclipse in her hometown of Webster, New York in April, as we will be in that exquisite path of totality. Woodward marvels at how science has allowed us to countdown the minutes while other events in our lives appear random and chaotic. The experience leaves one to ponder what is pre-ordained. By including images inspired by solar eclipse, her encaustic paintings intend to capture this conflict and visual tension between chaos and natural order.Woodward received her BFA in Printmaking from Syracuse University, and her MFA in Studio Art from Clemson University. Her zoomorphic paintings combine encaustic and print processes, and often utilize found collage materials. Woodward is a professor in the department of art and art history at Albright College, teaching drawing, painting, printmaking, and gender and the visual arts. Currently, she is collaborating with an environmental biologist to explore tropical ecosystems in Costa Rica. Woodward serves as is Resident Curator for the online site Artists2Artists. - Apr 29All daySAAM Library DisplayToday's Events | Case-Geyer Library, 3rd Floor
