See how the Raptor Center is helping a famous bald eagle heal

A bald eagle who was caught in a tree and rescued by a veteran on July 4 has been undergoing treatment at the U of M Raptor Center for months. 'Freedom' has had all kinds of tests, including a CT Scan at the Mayo Clinic, so the center can say it did everything it could. But the bird can't be released into the wild.

Scene & Heard: A golden day for Gopher Homecoming

Gopher Homecoming is a century-old tradition that brings together University of Minnesota students and alumni. First held in 1914, homecoming began as a modest affair consisting of an alumni dinner, concert and dance. This year, homecoming included a weeklong schedule of parties and concerts, a corn roast, an obstacle race and a service day, in addition to the parade and, of course, the big football game (a nail-biter in which the Gophers defeated Rutgers 34-32 on a last-second field goal.
