The Student Union Building has again purchased art from several Truman students to add to their permanent collection displayed throughout the building.

Artwork by Kate Sherron, senior art and psychology double major from Florissant, Mo.; Lisa Payne, senior art major from Manchester, Mo.; and Ellie Goedeker, senior art major from Ballwin, Mo.; was chosen.

“We see the Union as a student’s building,” Sujit Chemburkar, director of the Student Union Building, said. “Adorning the Union’s walls with student art is just one of the ways this philosophy is reflected in our actions. The Student Union Advisory Board votes on the art and it is a win-win situation for all those involved. The artwork is a constant reminder of what the students of Truman State University are capable of creating.”
