A Look at Murals and Mosaics Around Campus

All around campus, colorful mosaics and murals adorn building walls. Besides beautifying the interiors of campus buildings, murals are often a way for students to express themselves and personalize campus a bit.

This is particularly true in Risley Residential College, where walls are covered in murals painted and drawn by Risley residents over the past several decades. Clara Dickson Hall also features several murals painted by residents, and new murals are still popping up on bare walls.

Some more established murals have beautified Willard Straight Hall since it was built in 1925. The murals in Willard Straight were painted by Ezra Winter, who also painted for the Supreme Court.
