Daniel Loomis Valenza is a woodworking artist whose work has been showcased in the Smithsonian, sold by Sotheby’s and included the 1969 groundbreaking exhibition of studio crafts, “Objects USA,” as well as its revival “Objects USA 2020.”
But according to friend and former student Doug Peters ’71, Valenza “hides his light under a bushel” — not fully acknowledging the significance of his own work, or his legacy in American contemporary art.
Whenever Carl Hubbard ’21 boards a plane and sets off for the Bay Area to begin his job with Cisco Systems, it will be the start of a chapter he’s been eagerly anticipating for more than a year.
It will also be take-two.
Hubbard had secured an internship with Cisco last summer and by mid-February had also secured the plane ticket to take him there. But the COVID-19 pandemic forced the internship to become remote, leaving Hubbard with the potential sunk cost of travel and a lack of a suitable home office set-up.

With a new gift from the Internet Society, UNH’s InterOperability Laboratory (IOL) is undertaking a project to increase the security of the widely deployed NTP using a new standard called network time security (NTS). NTS, when used in conjunction with NTP, ensures that different networks’ solutions can “talk” to each other now and in the future.
Nearly every American owns a mobile phone, according to recent research, but fewer and fewer of us use telephoneĚýcallsĚýas our main way of communicating. “I’ll give you a ring” has been replaced by “I’ll shoot you a text,” and you’re more likely to be tweeted at or tagged than to answer a call and have a conversation. New technology and social media are turning the old-fashioned phone call into something of a cultural relic. And calls from an unknown number? According to recent research, the majority of Americans don’t ever answer those.
Women make up nearly half of the U.S. workforce, but only 27% of the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) workforce. Women are vastly underrepresented in STEM—and at UNH Manchester, we’re trying to change that.

Researchers are worried about the COVID-19 impact onĚý2020 Census data. Ken Johnson, Senior Demographer at UNH Carsey School of Public Policy, spoke to U.S. News and World Report about the potential issue of people moving out of more densely populated areas into rural communities, which could cause unreasonable estimates in the census data.
