The College of Arts Sciences at Indiana University, Bloomington welcomes you to ScienceFest 2017! We are excited to open our campus, labs, observatory, and classrooms to you, so thatyou can share our awe and wonder as we explore the worlds around, above, beneath, and withinus.Science Fest has become a beloved tradition. This year’s edition is especially exciting becausewe have several new partners, including our Department of Anthropology and our School of Art,Architecture and Design, participating.So, stand up straight, because our anthropologists are going to explain the evolution of uprightwalking. And the designers at our digital fabrication lab will show you how to make a laser-cutkey chain.You can also journey back in time by watching an alchemical transmutation. During the MiddleAges, alchemists, the forerunners of today’s chemists, were fascinated by the idea oftransforming base metals into gold.In fact, transmutation remains the mission of today’s universities. At the College of Arts andSciences, we aim to turn today’s brightest young students into tomorrow’s leading scholars andscientists. We aim to transform the world through our research, analyses, discoveries and throughthe education of a new generation of scholars.I hope that Science Fest will transform you, too. We’d love to welcome the “new transformedyou” back to our campus one day as a student in the College, ready to advance the frontiers ofknowledge along with us.So, welcome. Let the experiments and transformations begin!Sincerely,Larry D. SingellExecutive DeanCollege of Arts and SciencesOwen Hall 790 E.

Information OrientationSign-InInformation tables are located in all six buildings. Please sign in so we know you and those youcame with are here. If you would like to receive an early notification about next year’s ScienceFest, provide us with your email as well. This will help us let potential funders know how manypeople (and what age groups) come to Science Fest.WayfindingTo assist in finding your way around campus today, we’ve created our own “yellow brick road”by using sidewalk chalk and images to identify each building. At the top of each activity pageyou will find an icon; this is the symbol that is chalked on the sidewalk for the building wherethe activities listed on the page can be found. Use this legend to reveal a world of scienceexploration and wonder!Follow the WHITE ATOM path to BALLANTINE HALLFollow the ORANGE FLASK path to CHEMISTRYFollow the RED PALETTE & PAINTBRUSH path to the FINE ARTS BUILDINGFollow the GREEN LEAF path to JORDAN HALLFollow the YELLOW PLANET path to the KIRKWOOD OBSERVATORYFollow the BLUE COMPUTER path to LINDLEY HALLFollow the PINK FOOTPRINTS to the STUDENT BUILDINGHow Are We Doing?As we grow, we want to find ways to improve your experience, and you can help! Wandering DataCollectors will be walking around eager to get your views on Science Fest. If you see them with theirclipboards and Science Fest volunteer t-shirts on, please stop by and answer their questions. It willonly take one or two minutes and you will be contributing to the Science Fest knowledge base.**SPECIAL NOTE: Your participation in answering these questions is completely voluntary. This is not a scientific study, it is anevaluation. All information collected will be aggregated without reference to individuals. There are no known risks. The benefitsinclude potientially bettering Science Fest programming.**3

AnthropologyStudent Building 701 E. Kirkwood Ave.We Are What We Ate:Or are we?The field of Bioanthropology examines the adaptation, variation, and evolutionaryhistory of humans and their relatives, living and extinct.Current research by bioanthropologists in the IU Department of Anthropology ask questions about the characteristics thatmake us human. At Science Fest 2017 we will consider how our ancestors’ quest for food made us who we are today.You are invited to join us in Student Building 0609:00AM - 3:00PMT O E X P LO R E T H E S E Q U E ST I O N S : What was a Paleolithic diet and howdoes it compare to the currently popularPaleo Diet? How do skulls, teeth, and digestive tractsof animals eating different diets compare tohumans? How do paleontologists determine whatour ancestor’s diets were? What do Paleolithic stone tools tell us about ourancestor’s diet? How did tool use change our ancestor’s diets? Howdoes technology change our diets today? Almost all terrestrial animals walk on four legs, whydo humans walk upright on two legs (bipedalism)? What advantage did bipedalism give our chimpanzee-like ancestors some 5 million years ago? What can we learn about human evolution fromstudying chimpanzee behavior and anatomy today?TO S E A R C H F O R A N SW E R S, W E W I L L : Compare skulls and skeletons of modernhumans, human ancestors, andother primates Examine Paleolithic stone tools Learn to walk like a chimpanzee and consideradvantages of different forms of locomotion Walk in the footsteps of our ancestorson a printed replica of the famousLaetoli footprintsE X P LO R E A N T H R O P O LO GY AT I U :http://www.indiana.edu/ anthro/6 go.iu.edu/ScienceFest
