News & Announcements

• HSC Club updates:

We have six members and are continuing work with Linda Walczak (Director of Landscape Architecture, Rowan) to make some language and content for signage for the landscaping outside of Discovery Hall. The landscaping is meant to support the local ecology, making it scientifically beautiful! We plan to start collaborating with BMAaV, Art, and some Rowan scientists to build out the content in 2025 Spring.
