Silhouettes and attentive audience members facing a bright glow is one photographer’s artistic interpretation of the energy during a concert inside Finney Chapel. The photo also serves as inspiration for this week’s photo series.

As fall semester moves past the half-way point and the campus settles back into the rhythm of a regular school year, many of 91ֱ��’s traditions have reemerged.

In this week’s photo tour, we take a seat in Finney Chapel as 91ֱ��’s large ensembles return to the stage; attend an opening art exhibit at the Richard D. Baron ’64 Art Gallery; sway to a live concert on the patio of Spanish House; marvel at the spoken word in the Cat in the Cream; receive a warm fall welcome with food and music inside the tent in Wilder Bowl; connect with student and community organizations near the Science Center; attend an athletics and conservatory symposium in Stull Hall; dash over to a ribbon cutting in Philips Gym; rent a beautiful print from the Allen Memorial Art Museum; and clap wildly as members from the Class of 2020 walk across the stage in Tappan Square.
