Insect Museum makes it into the Bulletin


We're featured on the cover of this week's Bulletin, which is a magazine about the various happenings at NC State. Yes, that's my hand in that photo holding Phrictus tripartitus Metcalf plant hopper. I should have found one of our Pepsis specimens for that shot!

My favorite line from the PDF version of that story is the caption under the first photo of me holding and staring at a pinned insect: Dr. Craig Harms gives Willy a medical check-up upon her arrival at RDU. I think that was a holdover from a past story about the Vet School's Craig Harms examining a sea turtle at the Raleigh airport, but somehow it also works for my picture.

Anyway, it's fun to get some recognition. We might even make it onto the ncsu.edu soon, so keep your eyes peeled...
