Fortunately, there is a place like Northwestern – this kind of interdisciplinary innovation is in our DNA.

It is titled Northwestern Will, because we are resolved to achieve these goals and we are confident that we are the ones to pursue them. The plan’s foundation rests on Northwestern’s distinctive assets: our entrepreneurial and pioneering spirit; unconventional collaborations; an energetic community of students, scholars, and alumni; a dual passion for research and teaching; and an intense desire to put ideas into practice for the greater good. With the University’s astounding trajectory in recent years, Daniel I.

    14 November 2016 Morton O. Schapiro, President Daniel I. Linzer, Provost Patricia Telles-Irvin, Vice President for Student Affairs Philip L. Harris, Vice President and General Counsel Re: Northwestern Sanctuary for Undocumented Immigrants Dear President Schapiro, Professor Linzer, and Vice Presidents Telles-Irvin and Harris: We the undersigned faculty, staff, alumni, and students of Northwestern University write in the wake of Donald Trump’s election as president of the United States to declare our commitment to the safety and dignity of all students and workers in our community. We petition the university to declare Northwestern a sanctuary for undocumented students, workers, and their families. Mr. Trump has declared his intention upon taking office to immediately begin deportation proceedings against millions of undocumented immigrants in the United States, and to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) that provides relief for deportation for hundreds of thousands of young people in the United States, including many Northwestern students. If these policies are enacted, they will prove disastrous, subjecting students and workers who are integral to our community to punitive measures, and countering Northwestern’s stated commitment to “the personal and intellectual growth of its students in a diverse academic community.” We are dismayed at the wave of hatred that has swept across the nation since the election, including threats of deportation against Latina/o youth, bullying of Muslim and LGBT youth, incendiary graffiti

The set design for the 88th annual production, For the Record, called for a massive 11-foot-diameter rotating globe suspended above the stage and wrapped in the masthead of the show’s fictional newspaper, the Chicago Offering. Northwestern’s set, scenery, and paint shops are located in the Virginia Wadsworth Wirtz Center for the Performing Arts, but Waa-Mu is performed in Cahn Auditorium. How to pull off such a planetary transplant? By deflating Earth. The globe began as a plain white (albeit custom-built) inflatable balloon, but after its initial multisection muslin wrap was created (to determine shrinkage), it was deflated, rigged, reinflated, motorized, map-designed, taped for a paint mask, primed, painted, and unpeeled to reveal computer-generated, to-scale continents.
