Where do outdated books go when replaced with new editions? In this case they get new life as art. Check out the creative use of books as sculpture from COM instructor George Bowes’ sculpture students. See the exhibit in our Flickr slideshow or in the Library on exhibit until March 17th.
This time of year wildflowers are everywhere. Of course Texas is most famous for its bluebonnets, but there are lots of varieties of wildflowers out there. Most people know that Ladybird Johnson was responsible for the Texas Wildflower Program, but not everyone knows that it continues to this day. TxDOT continues to sow wildflower seeds everywhere, beautifying the highways of Texas. Mowing is only done during this time when necessary for public safety. Great for the environment and great for the scenery! Get more information on the program , or check out the Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center . To find them and see for yourself, get sighting info from Wild About Texas Wildflower: Sightings . See some great Texas wildflower pix at Flickr .
