Empty Bowls, Full Hearts
May 11, 2006 at 11:54 amHow does an empty bowl help fill a food shelf? The Carleton community learned the answer on May 5, 2006, when student-made soup bowls were sold to benefit the Northfield Community Action Food Shelf.
"We will be giving the Northfield Community Action Food Shelf at least $3000," said assistant art professor Kelly Connole, who worked with students as a community of potters to make over 200 soup bowls. "Our goal was $1500 and we are all delighted that we had such a successful day."
The potters partnered with interest houses on campus to serve a simple lunch of soup and bread on the Bald Spot, using the hand-made bowls and soup prepared by the students in the houses. Donations for the bowls benefited the Food Shelf, while the buyers received a hot meal and a beautiful bowl as a reminder of the hunger that exists in the world.
My Naked Self

It is 8:45 in the morning, too early for me to order my thoughts coherently or even realize where I am, but alas I am a working girl and have to take the shifts that come my way. So I lay sprawled naked across three different pillows, in front of the 25 intent faces of ARTS110: Observation Drawing. I try to slink into the type of sleep I reserve for these situations, the type I have perfected over the past three years, rigidly dozing while remaining aware enough to stay still. I manage to have complete dreams without one twitch.
