With the much advertised August 2017 total solar eclipse as a backdrop, the SIU Carbondale Departments of Physics and School of Architecture, encouraged students in Dr. Chad Schwartz's Architecture 351 Class to come up with plans for a Solar Observatory to, hopefully, be built on the Carbondale Campus. For more information contact Dr. Schwartz at 618-453-3734, or via e-mail: chad.schwartz@siu.edu. You can also contact specialist Bob Baer of the Physics Department at 618-453-2729 or via e-mail at:
