Sixteen painting students, led by professor Gary Chapman, collaborated on the exhibition’s centerpiece (at top and below), a 12-foot by 9-foot charcoal drawing depicting chimney swifts’ natural and manmade environments.

Students in assistant professor Doug Baulos’s scientific illustration course created images that both inspire and inform, such as the 3-D, pop-open piece (below) revealing the digestive tract of the chimney swift. Fiction-writing students taught by associate professor Kerry Madden-Lunsford featured the birds in short vignettes displayed at the exhibition.
