The cover story profiles river scientist Jack Schmidt, a USU professor who received the National Park Service’s prestigious Director’s Award.

The edition includes photography by world-renowned USU art professor Craig Law, highlights from Homecoming 2010 and an audio slide-show that features sculptor Blair Buswell during installation-day activities at the larger-than-life Merlin Olsen statue.
