Tonight is the autumnal equinox, otherwise known as the official beginning of fall. The word "equinox" comes from the Latin word aequus, which means "equal," and nox, which means "night." On the equinox, day and night are roughly equal in length.

This painting, titled "Autumn" is from the George Thompson Art Collection, found in the University Libraries Digital Collections.

We’re saddened by the passing of Gloria Steinem, whose writing helped shape the feminist movement and challenge the way we think about women’s lives. You can check out "Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions," among her many other books, from both Walsh and Quinn Libraries, and read her work for yourself 💖
