Growing up in New Castle, Indiana, Xavier Art Professor Kelly Phelps and his twin brother Kyle grew up hearing stories about the factories where their families worked. Kelly and Kyle also worked in those same factories, many now closed. Inspired to keep working-class history alive, Phelps and his brother have sculpted artwork that preserves this part of the American story.

Thirty-three Xavier University American Sign Language students volunteered at the annual Chili Cook-off hosted by the Hearing Speech and Deaf Center of Cincinnati held at St. Rita’s School for the Deaf in November. Students helped set up, serve chili, run children’s activities, sell raffle tickets, and clean up when the event was over. Students met and interacted with members of the Greater Cincinnati Deaf Community and used their ASL skills in a real-life application.
