Purdue Northwest - Hammond Campus

Feels weird calling Purdue Calumet, Purdue Northwest - Hammond Campus. I still prefer the name Purdue Calumet as I attended, and my diplomas that state Purdue University.

Still, I do like the looks of the campus more today than back in my day. It has changed for the times in a very good way. So, perhaps the name change is not so bad. I enjoy going back for memories, and to converse with my professors who are still there. 

When I do go on campus, I feel a need to learn some more. Perhaps in literature, writing, or photography. I will have to investigate that, and perhaps at some other local educational institutions. A bit tight on funds when you are retired, so there is a need to shop around.

Here are some photographs while I was on campus. Enjoy!!!

It is easy to see new when they have built new. When you stop and look, you also see that nature has grown up with you. Trees fill the grounds much nicer, pathways lined with foliage. Pretty cool to think I am around to see all of that change. Weird to think that I am that old to be in the position to write that. Wow.

Wes' Excellent Adventure X

After photographing Yoga In The Park, I picked up Bubba doggie and went to Purdue University NW to do some photography and to walk Bubba. Bubba was not having any of it. Where he wanted to go was not the direction I was forcing him to go. So, this became difficult. 

Here Bubba needed to take a break from it all. Not the art has a copyright, 1985 by Lynn Olson who created the art, so I am giving her credit here.

Inside the library building were two paintings created by the Zhou Brothers, donated by Dr. Eugene D. & Dorothy A. Van Hove. I did not photograph their art, however did photograph the image (not my image) and document. The image was taken September 28, 2012 at The Chicago Sinfonietta and the Zhou Brothers collaboration show. I was invited as a guest to photograph it. If you click on the above highlight you will be taken to that blog.
