We went to the permanent Ancient Egyptian Exhibit located in the fine arts building. Students recognized many familiar daily life tools used by Ancient Egyptians and met a real mummy. The university has a large collection of artifacts, we only had time for a fraction of them. We could have spent an entire afternoon there. Many children wanted to see more. The museum is free and open to the public most days! I encourage you to visit with your family.
We then walked across the lobby and stepped into the control room of a recording studio.
Dr. Jeff Cline showed us how he isolates, manipulates and synthesizes each instrument
into a beautiful piece of music.
We also explored the "live room" where the musicians play!
We even had our own young musicians with us....

| Lillian played Mary Had a Little Lamb. |

| And Junwon played a lovely classical piece. |
We had quite an exciting adventure this week.
A special thanks to the parents for having your kidos ready for the trek this week, to Mr. Tommie Miller for all the Blue Line accommodations, residency students for their help supervising, university faculty and staff for hosting us and sharing their knowledge, expertise and tiger spirit, and last but not least students for their respectful, responsible, and ready behavior!
I am always proud to take Campus School students into the greater community.
