Biology Olympics held

The 36th annual Biology Olympics was held April 13 in the Oberkotter Center for Health and Wellness. Teams of five students from a dozen area high schools competed in a question-and-answer game, a pencil and paper test for the entire team, a written experiment that addresses a biological problem, subject-specific written tests for individual team members, and an outdoor search for biological items.

The event was presented by the college’s Department of Biological Sciences at Cedar Crest College.

April 21 Spanish language one man show

Ángel Vázquez, Puerto Rican performer and educator, will present a free one man show, “Hecho en Puelto Rico,” (the L is on purpose) at 7 p.m April 21 in Lipkin Theatre, Kopecek Hall, NCC Bethlehem Campus.

The story revolves around a young man faced with the conflict of staying on the island or moving to the U.S. mainland. He opens up a suitcase his grandfather left for him which contains a history of Puerto Rico that he was never taught in school. As he reads, he begins to understand where one comes from, to know one’s history, and to understand that one’s culture has much to be proud of. Visit http://northampton.meritpages.com/news/.
