What: Exhibit: Nothing Unattempted: The Voyages of Captain James Cook
When: Through Sunday, March 7, 2010
Where: T.R. Anderson Gallery, 472 Wilson Library
Free and open to the public.
Noted British navigator and explorer James Cook was a man of many "firsts." He was the first British commander to circumnavigate the globe in a single vessel, the first known European to visit the Hawaiian Islands, the first European to land on Vancouver Island in British Columbia. He forever influenced naval life by actively preventing scurvy among his seamen, and his astronomical observations contributed significantly to modern knowledge of the solar system. Explore the fascinating career of the man who left "nothing unattempted."

University of Minnesota students Eric Hedstrand and Wilfredo Dominguez will discuss a project that earned them a top award in the Institute of Food Technologist's 2009 Developing Solutions for Developing Countries competition, a competition that promotes the application of food science and technology to the development of new products and processes to improve the quality of life of people in developing countries. Their product - a nutritious mix of lentils and dried potatoes, processed and packaged using sustainable methods - aims to help to alleviate hunger in Bangladesh. They will talk about how and why food products like theirs are developed.
