The University of Nebraska State Museum's next Sunday with a Scientist program for children and families will explore insects. The program will take place on Jan. 19 from 1:30-4:30pm at Morrill Hall (south of 14th and Vine Streets on the UNL City Campus).
Tiffany Heng-Moss, professor of entomology and associate dean in the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, will introduce children and families to one of the most successful groups of organisms on the planet - insects. Learn about insect diversity and why they look the way they do in this up-close encounter. Visitors will have the opportunity to hold hissing cockroaches, walking sticks, giant millipedes and other arthropods.
