Day of the Dead Ofrenda at NEHMA

Arts/Entertainment

Día de Los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a celebration of life and death that connects family members and allows many to grow closer with their loved ones. NEHMA highlights this tradition by creating a large ofrenda (offering table) in the lobby of the museum. On display are calaveras (decorated skulls), photos, food, candles, and marigold flowers to represent different kinds of ofrendas. People are welcome to dedicate a small portion of that ofrenda to someone they lost by writing their name on the ofrenda wall. Come visit the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art and our Día de Los Muertos ofrenda!

Cybersecurity Awareness Month - Scavenger Hunt

Student Activities

Come learn how to "Secure your World"!

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and this year’s theme is “Secure Our World.” There are four key areas that individuals can focus on to "Secure Their World": 1) Enable Multifactor Authentication, 2) Use a Password Manager, 3) Apply Patches, and 4) Activate "Find My Device."

We will have four tables across campus, each focused on one of these security priorities. Since Halloween is the next day, we’ve chosen the theme: “Don’t Get Tricked, Get a Treat! – Secure Your World.” Each table will provide treats along with information on one of the four priorities.

Scavenger hunt! participants will collect stamps at each table after learning about the security tip. Those who collect all four stamps can head to Old Main to claim a prize!

FSQ at USU: Nature’s Resonance

Arts/Entertainment

Debussy: String Quartet in G Minor, Op. 10
Claude Debussy’s String Quartet in G Minor, Op. 10, a cornerstone of the chamber music repertoire, will close our October concert with its impressionistic textures and vivid harmonic language. This quartet, with its shimmering colors and dynamic interplay, provides a striking contrast to the other works on the program, capturing the visceral beauty and emotional depth that Debussy is renowned for.
Night Fire by Akshaya Tucker
"Night Fire," a work for string quartet and tenor by Akshaya Tucker, was also written for the Fry Street Quartet and premiered last spring in the NOVA series in Salt Lake City. Another work created in partnership with GLFCAM’s "Composing Earth" project, Tucker’s composition, with its vivid textures and poignant text by Wren Brian, confronts us with the terror of escaping a wildfire. The FSQ is joined by tenor Thomas Glenn for this performance.
Bartók: Sonata No. 1 for Violin and Piano
Bartók’s Sonata No. 1 for Violin and Piano, a work of intense energy and rhythmic drive, showcases the composer’s deep connection to the folk traditions of Eastern Europe. Violinist Robert Waters and pianist Jason Hardink will bring this electrifying piece to life, capturing the fiery spirit and intricate dialogues between the two instruments.
