Blood Battle USU vs. Weber State
Special Event
There is a severe blood shortage in the United States right now, due to disasters and the pandemic, which cancelled many blood drives and prevented donors from regular donations. Utah State and Weber State are going head to head in the name of addressing the blood shortage during Blood Battle 2021.
Each school has a goal of collecting 1,000 units of blood, which is an unprecedented aspiration! American Red Cross teams will be on hand from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM every day for a week so that donors can step up and help community members they may never meet.
Appointments are required this year, and no walk-ins will be taken. Go to redcrossblood.org and type ZIP code 84322 or the sponsor code BLEEDBLUE in the search box in the top right corner to make an appointment.
Many volunteers are also needed to staff the check-in and snack tables. Sign up for a shift or two by logging into AggiePulse, USU's service database, here: https://givepul.se/cmjix1.

Quartet for the End of Time
Arts/Entertainment
French composer Olivier Messiaen wrote his pivotal Quartet for the End of Time while he was held prisoner in a Nazi POW camp. The work was first performed by Messiaen (plano) and three of his fellow prisoners in the camp on January 15, 1941. Based on the Book of Revelations from the Christian Bible, the movements run an emotional gamut from sadness to desolation to sheer terror and, ultimately, to hope. Through these eight movements, Messiaen demonstrates that, even amidst devastation, deprivation, and incalculable human loss, the essence of the power of music and the heart of humanity is hope—certainly a theme that resonates in our current time 80 years after the work was first performed.

Arts/Entertainment
The Alumni Exhibition will feature work of three former USU Art + Design BFA students who recently receive their MFA’s from Indiana University and Cranbrook Academy of Art. Jonathan Christensen Caballero graduated with his MFA in ceramics from Indiana University in 2020. Jiggs Henry graduated with his MFA in printmaking from Indiana University spring of 2021. Jake Vinson also graduate this past spring with an MFA in ceramics from Cranbrook Academy of Art.
Tiny House Exhibit / Interior Design and Architecture Program This exhibit shows a comprehensive project between Architectural Graphics I + II and CADD I + II. The project outline is simple: design a small residence for two people, approximately 500 sqft per level. The residence must have more than one level, be built in Utah, and meet all residential building codes. Students begin their design by abstracting an object, which then develops into architecture. The students create presentation drawings, a three-dimensional model, set of construction documents, and interior and exterior renderings of their custom design.

Mindfulness Meditation | Sitting in breath and presence
Recreation
FREE REGISTRATION: https://bit.ly/mindfulnessandmeditationweekly
Mindfulness is a type of meditation in which you focus on being intensely aware of what you're sensing and feeling in the moment, without interpretation or judgment. Practicing mindfulness involves breathing methods, guided imagery, and other practices to relax the body and mind and help reduce stress. Mindfulness meditation has been proven to support various health conditions - stress, anxiety, pain, depression, insomnia, high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, and more - and help you experience thoughts and emotions with greater balance and acceptance, improve attentiveness, and relieve burnout.
Practicing self care through mindfulness and meditation can help you relax and focus on what is most important - your overall wellness. This is a weekly, online wellness series hosted by the Utah State University Office of Health Equity and Community Engagement and Tribal & Rural Opioid Initiative Resource Center.
Jazz Jams Clinic
Arts/Entertainment
TBA
Jazz Jams
Arts/Entertainment
An eagerly awaited tradition around the Music Department is our series of monthly jam sessions, in which a guest artist (or two or three) from outside Cache Valley visits to perform jazz standards with USU students and community members in a relaxed environment. Come and sit in on a tune, or just sit back, relax, and enjoy the music. Jam sessions are completely unscripted, so you never know what exactly will happen, but it’s great fun watching musicians perform without a net! Our guest artist for September 29 is saxophonist/composer/arranger/bandleader Brian Booth. Brian’s music career has spanned 3 decades, during which time he has performed with many of the premier groups from around the Salt Lake area. He has performed with numerous notables including Natalie Cole, Lou Rawls, Mel Tormé, Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra Jr., Maureen McGovern, Rosemary Clooney, Debby Boone, and many others. Brian is a member of the Salt Lake City Jazz Orchestra (SLCJO) where he plays lead tenor saxophone, and he occasionally works with the Utah Symphony. With his good friend, trombonist Kevin Stout, Booth has released four CD recordings on the Jazzed5 Records label.
