Over the past few hundred years, the landscape in the northeast part of America has morphed from forest, to farmland, and back to forest.
With the resurgence of forested land, grassland bird populations have declined and become threatened. As part of Hampshire College's sustainability initiative, having managed meadow lands and tall grass in lieu of manicured lawns helps to provide a habitat for the endangered grassland birds.

And, for National Donut Day and Div IV weekend! Go eat a donut!
(The tradition began in the 1930s by the Salvation Army to honor women who served donuts to soldiers during WWI. Or it may just be an excuse to eat fried dough.)

commencement 2013
I forgot what an absolute blast photographing commencements are, as I was out of the country last year. Besides being a lot of fun, Hampshire's was very entertaining. Who else has a drag queen as moderator, and Amy Goodman as the keynote speaker? Here's a look at the 2013 grads! (Or 09F, as we call them)
