Leverton Art Project

A new mural will soon be completed in Ruth Leverton Hall on East Campus. The mural wraps around the whole first floor of Leverton in living color. It was drawn and painted freehand, which has been of great interest to NHS faculty, staff and students. People in the building are interested in the daily progress of the mural, and ask many questions of the artist, who is now accustomed to it. Lincoln-based Mural Mural Graphics designed the project.

Swearer and colleagues report link betwen behavior issues, disabilities and bullying

Students receiving special-education services for behavioral disorders and those with more obvious disabilities are more likely to be bullied than their general-education counterparts — and are also more likely to bully other students, a new study shows.

The findings, published in the Journal of School Psychology, highlight the complexity of bullying's nature and the challenges in addressing the problem, said lead author Susan Swearer, professor of school psychology at UNL.
