A river runs through it

The Arts Quad welcomes some new residents this week in the form of giant boulders. The boulders, which have been reclaimed from the courtyard in front of the Arthur Bourns Building itself now under renovation, will form islands in the new river-themed quad. Virginia Burt of Visionscapes Landscapes Architects Inc. was inspired by how people move through the space like a river. One of the highly used areas of the campus, more than 500 students traverse the Arts Quad each hour. Burt's design incorporates a winding river with eddies, confluences and deltas along and within its banks.

But if truth be told, he would be happy if it were the last Terry Fox Run he ran. After all, his ultimate race is in the lab, as he strives to find a cure for the disease that claimed the life of Terry Fox 25 years ago. With funding from the Terry Fox Foundation, the hematologist investigates and develops novel dendritic cell-based cancer vaccines to treat patients with hematological malignancy, specifically chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Ultimately, he hopes the vaccine will enhance the immune system to recognize and kill cancer cells.
