Jennifer Barlean’s BA Senior Exhibition features zoomorphic sculptures sewn from recycled fabric.

These critters are created as metaphors exploring, among other things, how emotion and behavior can manifest in the physical.

An opening reception will be held October 11th from 2 to 5 pm in the Library lobby.

Last summer, the Library announced its plan to switch from paper to email notifications in the fall semester. Starting today, all overdue notices, fine notices, and reminders will be sent to your NEIU email account. It’s all part of the Library’s efforts to build a greener university.

Save yourself the fines by renewing your library materials online or by calling the Circulation Desk at 773-442-4400.
