Rensselaer Hosts Renaissance Fair June 10 Rensselaer will host a Renaissance Fair on June 10 to showcase some of the Institute's key accomplishments. The event, part of the 2005 Reunion activities, will be held in the atrium of the Center for Biotechnology and Interdisciplinary Studies from 11:30 a.m. to 2:15 p.m., and is open to the campus community. The Renaissance Fair will include presentations and exhibits on nanotechnology, biotechnology, the Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center now under construction, the School of Humanities and Social Sciences Game Arts and Sciences program, and Rensselaer's athletics programs. Alumni and other visitors will also have an opportunity to see the Molecularium ™ show, a state-of-the art computer-generated animation program for children of all ages, developed by Rensselaer faculty, staff, and students that will be shown in an inflatable dome. Popcorn, cotton candy, balloons, and tours of the biotechnology building will also be available. "The fair is an opportunity to celebrate our accomplishments as we continue to move into bold new research domains and expand the campus experience. The fair will provide alumni and the campus community a chance to experience first-hand accounts of the true renaissance under way and encourage their participation in fueling this transformation through the Renaissance at Rensselaer: The Campaign for Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute," said Terri Cerveny, assistant vice president of development and alumni relations. |
