As Far As I Can Tell


Final Renderings

It’s less than a month before Meredith graduates so the craziness is slowly starting to fade. No more starting papers at midnight for a morning class, no more last minute mental dumps of brilliant but nerve wracking writing, no more trying to fit work into a schedule that’s already unhealthily busy.

This month there are various events that start wrapping things up. Last week was the unveiling of The Cauldron, the Kalamazoo College literary magazine that Meredith edited this year. I worked with her and the art editor Megan Ender to design the book and I’m happy with the way it turned out.

Everyone at K does a Senior Individualized Project (SIP) which acts as a final project to encompass the educational experience. The submitted concept must be approved and the student’s expectations are really high for an undergraduate level. Meredith wrote a thematic collection of poetry and today during a Hilberry Symposium panel she introduced her work and read some selections. Later this month you can hear the entire SIP, read by Meredith, at the Humphrey House Lounge on the K College campus. It’s happening on Friday, May 27th at 7:00pm. If you have that time slot open I would highly recommend coming. It’s all about the body and contains a poem about neutering a cat inside a cowboy boot — how can you resist?
