The Late Christopher Bean
The playbill for Taylor University’s Spring 1958 performance of The Late Christopher Bean by Sidney Howard.
The Late Christopher Bean is the story of a not well-off family who discovered they have inherited the paintings from an artists whose work has become very valuable, and how their greed impacts their home.https://pillars.taylor.edu/playbills/1295/thumbnail.jp

Effects of Evolutionary History on Adaptation in Bean Beetles, a Model System for Inquiry-based Laboratories
BACKGROUND: Current reforms in undergraduate biology education are advancing research experiences in laboratory courses. Such experiences in evolutionary biology have largely been limited to microbial systems. METHODS: We designed a guided-inquiry experiment in which students examine the effect of evolutionary history on the potential for adaptation in the bean beetle (Callosobruchus maculatus), an insect model system widely used in evolutionary biology research. Bean beetles lay their eggs on a variety of species of dried beans (seeds of species in the Fabaceae) and the larvae develop within the bean. They are an ideal model system for studies of experimental evolution in teaching laboratories as they are easy to rear, handle and manipulate. In this study, students design an experiment to determine if adaptation to a particular bean host pre-adapts their offspring to be more successful on a new bean host. RESULTS: Preliminary experiments by our students suggest that beetles adapted to a lower quality host (adzuki beans, Vigna angularis) are more successful on a new higher quality host (black-eyed peas, Vigna unguiculata) than beetles adapted to a higher quality host (mung beans,Vigna radiata). However, beetles adapted to black-eyed peas are more successful on mung beans than adzuki beans. CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, their results show that an evolutionary history on a low quality host might allow bean beetles to be more successful at invading new hosts.

Accounting for Climate Change in Rainfall Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF) Curves for Stormwater Management
This publication is meant to describe three major approaches to account for climate change in rainfall intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curves and the pros and cons of each approach. This document aims to provide information to practicing engineers, Extension agents, and others interested in how projected changes in rainfall patterns can be considered for water resources management.
