Third Post: TLS 154

Image
Pictured here is one of the most used classrooms in TLS: the lecture hall 154! This is a hall that's on the larger size, with seats being arranged not too far above each other in a sort of ampitheatre-like setting, with a small stage and a board as the main focal point. Not pictured above is the student's perspective of the classroom, which would depict the large whiteboard and projected screen right above it. 

Second Post: Lobby

Image
 Good morning! This picture was taken in the lobby of Torrey Life Sciences (TLS) that connects the main building from the separately attached lecture hall: TLS 154. The main subject of this photo is the full-size and complete skeleton of a walrus which is on display in this glass case. It is a good indicator of the central theme of the building, which also lies in its name, which is Life Science. In the glass case to the right, there are taxidermied birds of prey. 

First Post: Intro

Image
Welcome to my blog! This is the first post in a series of pictures all focused around a singular place, which is the Torrey Life Sciences Building at the University of Connecticut Storrs campus. This is is where most biology and environmental biology classes take place, as well as a few others such as Organic Chemistry. There are a few lecture halls and a multitude if classrooms and laboratories where research and learning takes place. Though it is dated on the inside, the building is subject to use by thousands of students every day. To me, this is just a place where I have classes, but through this collection of pictures, I will try to see if there's more to this place than meets the eye.
