Illinois Icons: Max Abramovitz
University of Illinois alumnus Max Abramovitz created spaces for the campus to come together. His firm, Harrison and Abramovitz, created the United Nations complex as well as the Philharmonic Hall at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, both in New York City. His experience with Lincoln Center inspired his work on Krannert Center for Performing Arts at Illinois. The university also tapped Abramovitz to create a larger, multipurpose entertainment venue. His design of a 400-foot diameter, unsupported dome for what is now known as the State Farm Center was a groundbreaking achievement. The program was produced by Tim Hartin, Kaitlin Southworth and Alison Davis Wood for the University of Illinois Department of Athletics and Office of Public Affairs.

Bright star, would I were steadfast as thou art - John Keats
Eleanora Benedict, reader
O Star (the fairest one in sight),
We grant your loftiness the right
To some obscurity of cloud --
It will not do to say of night,
Since dark is what brings out your light.
Some mystery becomes the proud.
But to be wholly taciturn
In your reserve is not allowed.
Say something to us we can learn
By heart and when alone repeat.
Say something! And it says I burn.
But say with what degree of heat.
Talk Fahrenheit, talk Centigrade.
Use language we can comprehend.
Tell us what elements you blend.
It gives us strangely little aid,
But does tell something in the end.
And steadfast as Keats' Eremite,
Not even stooping from its sphere,
It asks a little of us here.
It asks of us a certain height,
So when at times the mob is swayed
To carry praise or blame too far,
We may choose something like a star
To stay our minds on and be staid
-Robert Frost (1874-1963)
