Arkansas 180 Video: A Glass Act
John Pace at work on a piece of glass.
Master scientific glassblower John Pace works in research support and sponsored programs and helps keep scientific laboratories running on campus by designing custom-made pieces of glassware and repairing costly glassware when it breaks.
His work is featured in the latest Arkansas 180 Video.
The Arkansas 180 Series provides an eclectic review of the university campus, giving a 180-degree sweep of the campus in about 180 seconds, featuring student profiles, faculty research, campus events and simple seasonal montages of the changing campus environment. They are produced by the office of university relations as time from other projects allows and posted to Arkansas Newswire and the university’s YouTube channel at least once a month.
