Mother, by Emirati artist Maitha Demithan, was created by the process of scanography, using digital scanners to generate images and then collaging the images together. In the exhibit catalog the artist states that the piece depicts a mother as a hero, in her hands the tools of an artist “without which she cannot feel complete. In both are the feedback cycle of creating and nurturing, immersion and engagement.”

The youthful Robert Kennedy, beginning his road to the White House, drew a record audience for Impact Symposium 50 years ago. The backdrop to his speech—and the speeches of most symposium guests in the annual event’s early years—was a gigantic American flag, more than 150 feet long and weighing nearly 300 pounds. Stored for decades in the basement of Alumni Hall, this well-preserved flag recently resurfaced. At a Nov. 12 ceremony honoring veterans—and the significant contributions of Vanderbilt’s ROTC program—the flag was unfurled and refolded by volunteers, and deposited afterward in the Vanderbilt Libraries archives for preservation.
