But showcasing artwork by the people who inhabit the space offers something more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the new William T. Young Campus Center opens its doors to the 2021-22 academic year, students are finding art by their peers, representing a moment in time, exhibited in space that is in high demand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A partnership between Transy\u2019s Student Government Association and the Campus Center administration, the idea blossomed last spring as then senior Drew Dodds &#8217;21 worked with Campus Center director Brittany Wildman. Both were intent on adding art to the new center. Dodds was a photographer and swimmer on the pre-health track and SGA\u2019s chief of finance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When SGA funds went untapped because of the pandemic, Dodds pitched the idea to the SGA and Campus Center administrators that SGA funds normally reserved for student travel to conferences could be used to cover the costs of exhibiting student art on the walls of the center.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI loved our new Campus Center and wanted to find a way to bring artwork into the building to showcase student talent,\u201d says Dodds, now in his first year of medical school at the University of Louisville. \u201cI thought this Student Art Gallery would be a great way to make the building more of our own as we would be highlighting a few of our students on campus.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"757\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/10\/Drew-Dodds.jpg\" alt=\"Drew Dodds\" data-id=\"8335\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/10\/Drew-Dodds.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/2019\/10\/transylvanias-new-legacy-scholarship-strengthens-family-ties-to-university\/drew-dodds\/\" class=\"wp-image-8335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/10\/Drew-Dodds.jpg 757w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/10\/Drew-Dodds-331x350.jpg 331w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/10\/Drew-Dodds-691x730.jpg 691w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/10\/Drew-Dodds-284x300.jpg 284w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 757px) 100vw, 757px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"674\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/08\/Transylvania-staff_Brittany-Wildman.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"17868\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/08\/Transylvania-staff_Brittany-Wildman.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/?attachment_id=17868\" class=\"wp-image-17868\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/08\/Transylvania-staff_Brittany-Wildman.jpg 674w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/08\/Transylvania-staff_Brittany-Wildman-299x350.jpg 299w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/08\/Transylvania-staff_Brittany-Wildman-624x730.jpg 624w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/08\/Transylvania-staff_Brittany-Wildman-257x300.jpg 257w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 674px) 100vw, 674px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe was passionate about it,\u201d says Wildman, noting how she shared his enthusiasm for finding space to honor students. Wildman had visited numerous student centers and had seen how student art helped create a student-defined sense of place.&nbsp;She says she also liked how the project reiterated the purpose and message of the center; i.e., that the space is for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor me, student art is such a good way to make the Campus Center feel like it belongs to students and that it\u2019s the heart of the institution,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With approval from all parties secured, SGA funds helped to purchase frames, hanging materials and other supplies. The request for art was announced, along with a statement outlining efforts to be inclusive and respectful of all populations.&nbsp;Submissions from art majors and non-art majors were received and mounted across from the Student Engagement Center. It\u2019s accessible whenever the center is open \u2014 most days from 7 a.m.-10:30 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dodds\u2019s vision and Wildman\u2019s plan is to add a new art show each spring to the previous year\u2019s exhibit. All donated pieces will remain, serving as a sort of time capsule for what was meaningful to students at the time. Wildman thinks the space, including hallways on the upper level, can accommodate 10 years of art. She\u2019s eager that students should see student art represented through time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both also hope the SGA Student Art Gallery continues to grow into other areas of the center and around campus. \u201cI love the idea of highlighting student talent,\u201d Dodds says, \u201cand this project was a great opportunity to do so. I can\u2019t wait to see what art is showcased in the coming years.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Transylvania&#8217;s new Campus Center opens its doors to the 2021-22 academic year, students are finding art by their peers representing a moment in time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":17880,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"1761,9409,1904,1677,1550,14771","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[12,8],"tags":[197,767,61],"feeds":[],"class_list":["post-17863","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-admissions","category-campus-life","tag-campus-center","tag-student-art","tag-top-stories"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Transylvania SGA Student Art Gallery opens in new Campus Center - Transylvania University - 1780<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"As the newly completed William T.
