Zeno chose to stay in her dorm as long as she could following NAU’s online-only mandate, her collection of found objects all the smaller for it. The only other requirement was that the students choose something from the time period covered in her course while paying attention to form, style and analysis. Abigail Paternina, a junior who was enrolled in Carpino’s upper-level Roman art class, chose a portion of a fresco showing Terentius Neo and his wife Livia (from house VII, 2, 6) at Pompeii circa 70-79 CE. In it, Terentius Neo holds a scroll; his wife holds a stylus and a wax writing tablet. In Paternina’s version, the wax tablet is replaced by an iPad, the stylus by an Apple Pencil.
