The Harold B. Lee Library and the Ballard Center for Social Impact have teamed up to sponsor our fourth annual photo competition! Take a photo of anything related to this year's theme and post it to our site. The best three photos will win COUGAR CASH PRIZES!! The winners and several others will be displayed in our Science Art Gallery (level 2 of HBLL).
Even if you do not wish to submit a photo, come and have fun with us! Visit our site and enjoy the creativity of fellow students. And, while you're at it, come visit the second floor of the library and check out our collection of books and other science resources!
Science for the Human Good
We often associate science with lab coats, research, and theories. But science is more personally impactful than that - its ultimate aim is to benefit mankind. This is especially the case at BYU, where we "Enter to Learn, Go Forward to Serve." Elder Maxwell noted:
“Brigham Young University seeks to improve ... itself for the sake of others - not for the praise of the world, but to serve the world better.” (Neal A. Maxwell, November 1971)
On and off campus we can see many examples of students using science to address difficult human issues like poverty, public health, environmental problems, and mobility. We invite you to share your observations of how science is employed by BYU students to improve the human condition.
