Staying in Shape at the Gym

Despite busy schedules, students at the University of Maryland find the time to exercise and stay in shape. Physical fitness is not easy, and students take it seriously.

This young man recently had mononucleosis, otherwise known as "mono." Returning to the gym is a sign that he is well.

People can bond in the weight room and learn valuable skills about working with others. These two boys rotated the use of this machine.

It may not be warm enough to go swimming outdoors, but the indoor pool at the recreation center allows swimmers to stay in shape.

                                 

McKeldin Mall, All Hours and Spots

At 12:20 PM. As the weather gets warmer, students flock to the mall midday to celebrate the coming of spring.

At 4:30 PM. While still warm and sunny, students are mostly finished with classes, leading to a quieter mall as night approaches.

At 10:00 PM. Standing at the foot of the ODK fountain, there's something serene about the mall at night, when an area so crowded a few hours ago sits perfectly still, waiting for the sunrise.

Arizona Feature Fiesta

In Arizona, green plants can grow in beds of rock, making them the perfect landscaping tool for golf courses there.

The practice putting green at Continental Golf Course was busy the day following the area's first rainstorm in nearly 90 days.

Plants thrive in the sun outside Goodyear Ballpark in Goodyear, Ariz. where the Cleveland Indians fell to the San Francisco Giants by two runs.
