“Understanding Trauma through Art and Literature” exhibit displays at Health Sciences Library through May 20
Rather than simply trying to define trauma, a group of undergraduate honors students created works of art that illustrate and narrate trauma. Their exhibit, “Understanding Trauma through Art and Literature,” will remain on display at the West Virginia University Health Sciences Library through May 20.
Important info regarding Adobe software
WVU is currently in the process of renegotiating the software licensing agreement with Adobe. Due to dramatic increases in cost with this software, we need to verify use and only install it on computers where the software will be used. In the past, several Adobe programs were automatically included as part of the standard software image on PCs being deployed at HSC regardless of whether the end-user needed the software or not.
