Sustainability work teeters on the precipice between hope and doom, which can be difficult to visualize. For the Winter 2025 Voice cover, we turned to a Minnesota artist whose work deftly navigates this balance—Gregory Euclide. Download the full cover illustration: www.carleton.edu/voice/storie...

I started a new thing at Carleton College! It highlights the breadth of a liberal arts education, reminds students that faculty don't know EVERYTHING, and is loads of fun! In "Guess Lectures," faculty give 7-minute talks using someone else’s slides from an unrelated discipline, sight unseen.

It’s TIME to add another Carl to the #TIME100! Wesley Sundquist ’81 has been named one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People of 2025, along with virologist Tomáš Cihlář, for their research leading to a highly effective drug that prevents HIV infections. www.carleton.edu/news/stories...
