This image shows a person wearing red sparkly glasses, black headphones, and a black face mask, holding up a sign that reads "Being Intentional About Going BACK TO SCHOOL" in decorative lettering. They're wearing a black shirt with colorful letters spelling "LFG" (which commonly stands for "Let's F***ing Go" as an expression of enthusiasm or motivation). The setting appears to be indoors, possibly in an office or institutional building, with modern lighting and furniture visible in the background. The overall tone suggests someone who is excited and motivated about returning to school or an educational environment.
This image shows a website header for the University of Utah College of Fine Arts. The main visual element is bold, stylized text that reads "MORE THAN ART, MORE THAN TREATMENT" with "ART" displayed in yellow letters and "TREATMENT" in red letters against a yellow background block. The text "MORE THAN" appears twice - once in white at the top and once in red within the yellow section. The background has a teal/green color scheme, and there's a partial view of what appears to be a photograph showing hands on the right side. The University of Utah logo appears in the top left corner, and there are navigation menu items visible at the top right including "About," "Students," and "Faculty & Staff." At the bottom, there's a photo credit to Brandon Cruz and a byline indicating the content was written by Emeri Fetzer.
This image shows a row of doors in a minimalist hallway setting, with most doors being white/gray and one distinctive red door in the center. The text overlay reads "Research is averages." at the top and "Clients are individuals." at the bottom, with a website attribution to www.MalissaMorrell.net.
A hand holding scissors cutting through the word 'uncertainty' against a teal background. [Un]Certainty. The image has the title 'Are We in a Crisis of Curiosity?' at the top and the website 'www.MalissaMorrell.net' at the bottom.
A few years ago, I had a particularly earnest social work student who arrived early to every class, sat in the front row, raised his hand, and took fastidious notes. I don’t need to tell you that he always wore a bowtie and Clark Kent glasses, but he did. > > m o r e > >
Two pictures of Malissa Morrell side by side. In the left, she's outside and has long, curly hair. IN the right, she's inside and has very short hair. The pic says, "A lot has changed since we last talked."
