Gary Bentley is the author of the Daily Yonder's rural blog, "In the Black," a personal, unflinching, sometimes controversial, but always eloquent reflection on his own life as an underground coal miner.
Bentley’s personal accounts of life underground aim to take his readers beyond the two stereotypes he sees most often: that of "Evil King Coal" where coal strips the land and people of everything they love; and "the romantic miner," the images conjured by Depression-era black-and-white photos of men posing with picks and shovels and lunch buckets in hand.
Join us for a conversation with the speaker, including readings from some of his blogs.
Free and open to the public. Refreshments provided by the Appalachian Studies Program. Event Date: February 21; 4:30-6:00 pm Location: Library 208 Cost: Free

RecycleMania is here again and this year EKU is hoping to improve upon our ranking from last year
We will be comparing our recycling and landfill waste totals against other local and National Universities, including the likes of Berea College, Centre College, Morehead State, NKU, UK, & UofL - therefore bragging rights are at stake!
Do your best to reduce your waste to landfill - read up on "What goes where?" and recycle properly.
Each week we will be reporting our weights of landfill waste, recycled paper, bottles and cans over the 8 week competition. We will be competing on the following criteria:
Landfill diversion rate (%)
Total weight of recyclables recovered (lbs)
Total weight of recyclables recovered per person (lbs/person)
