The world notices the first redbud days of spring Redbuds are among the first signs of spring in Kentucky. As I enjoyed the aesthetics of this spot on a beautiful day in early spring, the analytical marketing and business side of my brain kicked in when I saw a prominent globe on a university campus. That is probably why I stopped to ponder this sculpture in the first place.

Title: With International Reach

Venue: Charles A. Keown Student Plaza, Western Kentucky University
