KINSC Scientific Imaging Contest

This homepage ran on Monday, July 31, 2017. Content and links may have changed.

The KINSC Scientific Imaging Contest is an annual competition for student-submitted images from experiments or simulations that are scientifically intriguing as well as aesthetically pleasing. Judging is based on both the quality of the image and the explanation of the underlying science.

Then & Now: Magill Library Now

Magill Library

Magill Library will be totally transformed by a renovation and revitalization that is scheduled to begin in January 2018. The building will be renamed Lutnick Library (for Howard Lutnick '83, who gave a $25 million gift to help fund the project), and its new incarnation will include enhanced technology, open and flexible spaces, renovated book stacks, increased accessibility for special collections, and a café. Heritage spaces, including the Magill Wing and its historic façade on Founders Green, will be preserved.
