It's #FluShot time! #VaccinesWork

Yep. It's #SaturdayWalkDay 40th anniversary edition #IYKYK Today's accompaniment and inspiration is our daughter and the #SLSYO in honor of #NationalDaughtersDay earlier this week and the reopening of #PowellHall #OldFartsWalking

If you are attending #NABT in St Louis or #ASMCUE in San Antonio don't miss our posters on teaching about Fanny Hesse and other overlooked key figures in #STEM

It was an honor to get to share the story of #FannyHesse at #ASMicrobe and being on the exact day of the 175th anniversary of her birth was icing on the cake (agar in the Petri dish 😀?) Thanks to #Corrado_Nai and #CHOMA for the opportunity. youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Happy #CareerFairDay to all who celebrate. #HireMiners! #MissouriSandT

Had fun visiting with #MinersInTheMaking and doing activities about the spread of infectious disease and the importance of proper handwashing.

I'll be on campus most of the day so Y joined me for #SaturdayWalkDay before work. Walked our usual weekday route and no need for music accompaniment. Also got to break in my new sneeks. Today's inspiration is #ABRCMS #FutureOfSTEM @asm.org #ASMCUE #OldFartsWalking

Kicking off #PathogenicMicrobiology with a fun game to introduce key concepts for the course. #PathogensAndOurDefenses @ASMICROBIOLOGY.BSKY.SOCIAL #MissouriSandT asm.org/lesson-plans...

Happy first day of the Fall semester to those who celebrate! And we ALL celebrate @MissouriSandT

Always fun kicking off the Fall semester with the new student-athlete barbecue. Great to meet all the new #Miners and can't wait to see them on the field, on the court, on the course, and in the pool. #GoMiners #MissouriS&T #MinerSports

Wrapping up an eventful #OWeek with the always fun #ProjectX race. Got to sponsor 2 delightful teams. I was also judging so only got to watch one race. Way to go #RAC and #MsFrizzlesRevenge @MissouriSandT

Faculty are ready to kick off #OWeek with our booth for the #MinerIslandChallenge. Sharing tips for #StudentSuccess compiled by Missouri S&T faculty.

Emergency #BobaTeaRun to CoMO. Stopped to check out the sunflowers at South Farm on the way!

Welcome #NewStudents! Had a great morning visiting with students in the #CornerstonePeers program. Looking forward to all the #OWeek activities and Monday's convocation. See you all there. #MissouriSandT

It's #SaturdayWalkDay. Today's accompaniment was #TheNice and motivation was my #MinerChallenge2018 students. #ProgRockSummer #OldFartsWalking

Fort Collins is my kind of town. Dog friendly. Easy to Walk. Biking friendly. People friendly. Lovely street art.

Last week spent a few days in Fort Collins, CO. Short productive visit. Great to work with creative colleagues from campus and across the country developing strategies to support student success. Early mornings were comfortable for some walks and short breaks to explore old town.

Time for #SaturdayWalkDay. Today's accompaniment was #RickWakeman. #ProgRockSummer continues. Today's inspiration is #UCLA #NeverBackDown! #StandUpForUC #OldFartsWalking

Fun day at the #MissouriStateFair. Got to talk to lots of families about #SandTBioSci and share fun STEM activities. Have you really been to the State Fair if you didn't check out the #ButterSculpture? Bonus treat to get a photo with a soybeans.

It' #SandTBioSci day at #MissouriStateFair.

Took advantage of a beautiful (and relatively cool) Sunday afternoon and visited #ColumbiaBottom to check out the lovely #Sunflower fields.

A tale of two #Titan_arum flowers. #Desi checked in at barely 3 feet and #Octavia hit almost 8 feet. Photos of each before and during bloom. Octavia was about 5 ft when the "before" photo was taken about a week ago. @mobotgarden.bsky.social

Quick trip to @mobotgarden.bsky.social to check out the amazing #Octavia. Checking in at nearly 8 feet tall she is quite a beauty! Third #CorpseFlower to bloom this year and we got to see two of them. One at each end of the scale - 3 foot Desi and 8 foot Octavia. What a treat! #CorpseFlowerSummer

Atypical #SaturdayWalkDay. Waited all morning for a landscaper so had to get the walk in in the afternoon. #OldFartsWalking #JustKeepMoving

Latest #AgarArt from the #MidwestSTEM conference. #TeachersGotTalent #MissouriSandT #SandT_CASE

Gave a presentation for the Midwest STEM Conference. Good fun introducing the awesome @biobuilder.bsky.social curriculum and the new #BioTechBuilder program. Excited to bring biotech workforce development to rural Missouri. Bonus opportunity to create #AgarArt #MissouriSandT #SandT_CASE

Time for #SaturdayWalkDay. Today's accompaniment is #Yes, and inspiration is #sandt_tfxc. #ProgRockSummer #OldFartsWalking

It's #SaturdayWalkDay. Today's accompaniment is #KingCrimson and today's inspiration is #Cells! #KeepingQuiteBusy #OldFartsWalking

One last #SummerCamp session. This time exploring the importance of nutrient cycles as campers finalize plans for post-apocalyptic survival. #CASEApocalypse #MissouriSandT #MissouriSandT_CASE @biointeractive.bsky.social

It's #SummerCamp number 3. This time we are rebuilding a post-apocalyptic society. Chance to talk about history of public health strategies from the plague to 19th century cholera. Good opportunity to pull out the plague doctor outfit. #MissouriSandT #MissouriSandT_CASE

The campers in the #WormsToStars summer camp made some very nice #AgarArt #MissouriSandT #sandtcase #sandtcec

It's #SaturdayWalkDay! Today's accompaniment is #EmersonLakeAndPalmer and inspiration is the @biointeractive.bsky.social Community. #OldFartsWalking

Had fun doing an #AgarArt session for a colleague's summer camp. Made a jumbo plate version of their camp logo. Turned out pretty well if I say so myself. Also made #Bactographs of their mission patches. I'll post their work this weekend after my conference. #MissouriSandT @ASMicrobiology.org

Third time's the charm. The corpse flower at @mobotgarden.org started to bloom so hopped in the car for a late night showing to finally get to check it out in all its glory. A bit smaller than most, but "Desi" did not disappoint. Thanks to the Garden staff for making this possible.

We saw that another Titan arum "corpse flower" at @mobotgarden.bsky.social could bloom in the near future so took a trip to check it out. Not blooming yet but always nice to visit the gardens even when it is sweltering hot.

It's #SaturdayWalkDay. Thanks to #NeilYoung for the accompaniment and award winning, conference winning, #MinersGolf for the motivation. #OldFartsWalking
