The sun's rays are strongest between 10:00am and 4:00pm. Plan outdoor activities and travel during the cooler times of the day. Students, faculty and staff walking on campus can use an umbrella and sunscreen to protect against the sun. Find more tips here: cdc.gov/nceh/features/extrem…

A blue wall reads "Drawing the motion picture." There is smaller text underneath. On the right is an art piece that shows a person wearing red shoes, a dress and appears to be dancing. One hand reaches out in front as the other reaches behind and the dancer is on their tippy toes on one foot with the other behind them.
