“I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting system, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in.” -George Washington Carver

George Washington Carver worked to help victims of childhood paralysis and polio

“I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting system, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in.”

“Selfishness and self are at the bottom of a lot of troubles in the world. So many people fail to realize that serving God and one’s fellow-men are the only worthwhile things in life. It is service that counts.”

George Washington Carver -'Human need is really a great spiritual vacuum which God seeks to fill.'

The Tuskegee Institute mass produced HeLa cells in the 1950s. The personal story of Lacks, as well as the research role her cells played, is chronicled in Rebecca Skloot's book The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, which was provided to every first-year Purdue student to read this year. Some Liberal Arts faculty incorporated the book in their class assignments. Photo courtesy of Library of Congress
