Upcoming events

n Biodiversity Museum Day: On Saturday, Feb. 22, the Bohart is just one feature of the day. A familyfriendly, daylong event, visitors can transverse through campus and explore “the diversity of life” as found in 13 museums or collections with expert students, staff and faculty on hand. n Many-Legged Wonders: Saturday, March 18, will feature the manylegged wonders from 1 to 4 p.m. for things like spiders, millipedes and centipedes.

From anthropology to entomology, this year’s Biodiversity Museum Day will feel like the preCOVID days. Virtual tours occurred in 2021 and last year. There was a check-in center to monitor maskwearing and vaccine status and ensure that each time someone moved into a different collection, they weren’t spreading germs all over campus. The event was bumped forward a month due to the Omicron surge.

“So this year, hopefully, it’ll be back to preCOVID,” Yang said. “We’re all back in our home bases so we can show off our collections better. People can walk around campus and visit different things; it will hopefully be an awesome event. Yeah, we’re excited,” she said.
