It seems like that time of year where you try to catalog the changing of the leaves, because they\u2019re pretty, but because you want them to stay.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So I’m doing that this week, which feels like the peak of the leaf turn. Here are two more examples from campus.<\/p>\n

This is the newly renamed Francis Morgan Swain Student Building:<\/p>\n

Before women could vote, Francis Morgan Swain was making waves on the IU campus. She lobbied the university for a space meant for female students. She was in school here for two years, from 1889 to 1891. During that time she raised $6,500 from alumni and members of the community — that’s about $200,000 today. Her husband, Joseph, a math professor, was the ninth president of the university. They stayed on to lead the university for nine years. She came back in 1904 for the groundbreaking, laid a cornerstone and she was here again when the building was formally opened in 1906. In September of last year the university rededicated the building in her honor. <\/p>\n

And this is the side of our building, Franklin Hall, the brand new 110-year-old, $26 million dollar renovation, featuring all the bells and whistles journalism and broadcast and video game majors and comm scholars could ask for. <\/p>\n
