On display you will find the first season of The Big Bang Theory along with all things Sheldon: trains, Texas, Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly, comics, cats, and of course, theoretical physics. The display will remain up throughout the month of December. - Posted on Clemson University Libraries’ Blog, December 3rd 2014 Works on Display • Aczel, Amir D.
