Many eyes have gazed upon the beautiful Centennial Mural on the east side of the NSU playhouse, located on the corner of Downing Street and Muskogee Avenue. This piece was created to celebrate NSU’s 100th anniversary, and symbolizes their accomplishments, values, and potential for the next 100 years. The Centennial Mural is a large-scale mural stretching 18 feet by 69 feet and was painted by artist, Lance Hunter and a class of advanced NSU art students. The Centennial Mural was expected to have a lifetime of 15 to 20 years, but unfortunately is said to be deconstructed after only three short years due to necessary construction on the NSU Playhouse.

Something new has arrived on campus to help drivers be aware of how fast they are trying and to help remind students what the speed is. 
“We decided to purchase the radar speed signs to even further discourage drivers from speeding in and around campus,” said Sergeant Jim Flores, NSUPD. “The signs have shown to be extremely effective and work by refocusing the attention of distracted drivers.”
The radar speed signs do more then just show how fast or slow someone might be going. They are solar powered and take pictures at different times during the day. 
“They have the ability to record volume and speed data for all traffic passing the sign and more importantly, catch the attention of speeding drivers with a bright, flashing strobe light when they are found speeding,” said Flores.
