![If this fossilized ground sloth skeleton were a person, its pose suggests it’s an old man with lower back pain leaning over a kitchen counter to get something out of a cabinet with both hands. Its hip bones and ribcage are way bigger out of proportion than a human body would be, though, and its head, smaller but snoutier. It’s heavy tail seems to be providing balance so it doesn’t topple forward. In real life, it stands taller than a person.](/sites/default/files/styles/4_3/public/2024-09/OSAM_FALL24_Orton_02.jpg.webp?itok=Rn920CCH)

![From this photo, you can tell that Tammy Wharton, a white woman with short blond hair and a pretty smile, has excellent listening habits. She seems super-engaged and even encouraging as she looks directly at the woman who’s speaking with her, who is pictured from behind. Other people are in the background of the photo, so you can see it’s a meeting or convention at a place where huge windows let in lots of natural light.](/sites/default/files/styles/4_3/public/2024-07/OSAM_SUM24_Tammy_08_0.jpg.webp?itok=E7pcGjC8)

![In the morning light on a cold day (indicated by leaf-less trees and the distant people walking toward the library while wearing winter coats), clouds against a blue sky cast shadows on the columned front of the library. Multi-paned windows reflect the blue of the sky above a few arched entrances.](/sites/default/files/styles/4_3/public/2024-05/OSAM_SP24_Library_21_0.jpg.webp?itok=DWKBraQT)

![Patrice Palmer seems proud, thoughtful and friendly but direct as she poses for this photo with a slight smile that nevertheless lights up her face. She seems to be looking the viewer in the eye. She is an older Black woman with shoulder-length hair and wears rectangular glasses, a business suit, a silk scarf and silver rings and watch.](/sites/default/files/styles/4_3/public/2023-11/OSAM_WI23_Patrice_01_0.jpg.webp?itok=Ko8e1c8O)
