By Susan Shelton Mural Imagery Key Top Section
“Nurturing the Dream” By Susan Shelton Mural Imagery Key Top Section: The quotes reflect the overall theme of the mural: the importance of finding a balance between the work we do as students, workers, activists, and caregivers, and the time needed for reflection, nourishment of the spirit and restoration of strength. The large rectangular tiles on pillars A, B, C, D are inspired by Wangari Maathai’s “I Will be a Hummingbird” story. This folk tale poignantly illustrates the importance of doing one’s best, no matter how insignificant our efforts may feel at times, in the face of a seemingly insurmountable task. Pillars: The mural pillars showcase the conceptual and artistic participation of the students and staff of the Student Community Center, and other members of the university community, who were invited to contribute their suggestions for the imagery featured, and who also participated in painting the individual tiles. The tiles represent the various identities, paths, goals, causes and struggles of the students: academic, social, personal and political. Pillar A: 1. World View: North and South America 2. Wi-Fi Symbol/Connectivity 3. Power Symbol in the Digital Age 4. Hands Holding Seedling: Cultivating Hope/Justice/Stewardship 5. Filipino Sun 6. Irish Symbol: Love, Loyalty and Friendship 7. Love, Pride and Celebration of African Heritage 8. Lotus: Ancient Asian Polyvalent Symbol 9. Raised Fist with Olive Branch: Nonviolent Protest/Activism 10. Study of Astronomy/Astrophysics 11.

The Language of Flowers Is Almost As Ancient and Universal a One As That of Speech
T H E LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS; OR, FLORA SYMBOLIC A. INCLUDING FLORAL POETRY, ORIGINAL AND SELECTED. BY JOHN INGRAM. “ Then took he up his garland, And did shew what every flower did signify.” Philaster. Beaumont and Fletcher. WITH ORIGINAL ILLUSTRATIONS, PRINTED IN COLOURS BY TERRY. LONDON AND NEW YORK: FREDERICK WARNE AND CO. 1887. vA^tT Q-R 7 SO XSH mi TO Eliza Coo k THIS VOLUME IS AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED BY HER FRIEND THE AUTHOR. o Preface. j^IIE LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS has probably called forth as many treatises in explanation of its few and simple rules as has any other mode of communicating ideas; but I flatter myself that this book will be found to be the most complete work on the subject ever published—at least, in this country. I have thoroughly sifted, condensed, and augmented the productions of my many predecessors, and have endeavoured to render the present volume in every re¬ spect worthy the attention of the countless votaries which this “ science of sweet things ” attracts ; and, although I dare not boast that I have exhausted the subject, I may certainly affirm that followers will find little left to glean in the paths that I have traversed. As I have made use of the numerous anecdotes, legends, and poetical allusions herein contained, so Preface. VI have I acknowledged the sources whence they came. It there¬ fore only remains for me to take leave of my readers, with the hope that they will pardon my having detained them so long over a work of this description , but “Unheeded flew the hours, For softly falls the foot of Time That only treads on flowers.” J. -
