Mini-grant awards support sustainability projects on campus
The Eastern Mennonite University student group Earthkeepers has announced the 2019 winners of its annual mini-grants supporting campus sustainability projects. Another purpose is to foster creative and educational collaboration - as is apparent in the projects awarded this year: The Cycling Club was granted $500 to purchase and - with help from Best Bike Mechanic of the Blue Ridge Ben Wyse - repair more bikes for renting out to EMU students at a subsidized price, said club president Ella Reist. "It advocates biking culture around campus and Harrisonburg." Senior Ben Zook was awarded $450 to help fund his solar-powered mobile kiosk, which will be on the turf field to power any needs there, including the concession stand. The project, which will be a collaboration between the Earthkeepers and Engineers for a Sustainable World clubs and the Student Government Association as well as local companies Engineering Solutions and Secure Futures, "represents the student body interest in implementing sustainability designs around campus," he said. The Sustainable Food Initiative (SFI) received $150 for a water collections system for the campus chicken coops, a project that King called "simple, but ingenious." The system, to be built and installed by SFI members, will increase "the self-reliance of SFI food production and reduces the campus's water requirements," said Wade Banks, SFI co-president. The Chronicles of Yarnia knitting group received $100 for a "tempestry" knitting project creating tapestries that illustrate the change in temperatures in a location over the years. "The finished pieces will depict climates change in a unique fashion and attract attention and awareness that numbers in a report cannot," said advisor Barbara Byer.

Annual music gala features jazz and wind ensembles, orchestra and choirs
The fall 2018 music gala at Eastern Mennonite University will highlight the university's many ensembles - and a "lullaby" requiem. The annual event is 7-9 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 17, in Lehman Auditorium, with a freewill offering to benefit the music scholarship fund. The first half of the concert will feature the EMU jazz and wind ensembles conducted by Bob Curry and the orchestra conducted by Benjamin Bergey . In the second half, Professor Ryan Keebaugh will conduct the combined choirs and orchestra in a performance of Gabriel Faure's Requiem Mass. The evening ranks among concerts at EMU as "one of the biggies," said Professor James Richardson , music department chair. "It's a uniquely combined effort," he said. "You'll see faculty performing along with students - part of the ethos of our department's sense of community." That community includes music majors but also other students, as "many of the people that make up our ensembles are doing it for their own edification - and we like that," he said. "We have open doors."
