Making our own fun in Morris We often say that “students in Morris make their own fun,” but what does that mean? It means they study, they research, they contribute, and they dress up and strut their stuff. Here’s just a handful of fall semester’s activities, remembered in photos.
Morris students spent weeks preparing for end-of-semester presentations and debates, practicing research and publicspeaking skills.

Many students participate in community service, including helping to maintain the on-campus Native American garden. We welcomed several guest speakers during the fall semester. Pictured are: Anne Panning, author of Butter; Jeff Lieberman, host of the Discovery Channel’s Time Warp; Kathleen Dean Moore, distinguished professor of philosophy at Oregon State University; and Michele Norris, awardwinning journalist and host of NPR’s newsmagazine All Things Considered.
