India Revisited, on exhibit in the Langdon Gallery, is a photo essay by faculty members Maggie Ball and Larry Fask, from their second journey to India. Their continued interest in exploring India grew out of their common interest in Eastern art and religion, cultural diversity, and social outreach.

"There is an indescribable and compelling force that seems to call us back. Despite the arduous nature of travel in India, the effort has always paid off in so many ways. One cannot experience the place without being personally challenged and spiritually changed. The din of a billion human beings moving rhythmically with cows, bulls, camels and carts envelops and hypnotizes, pulling us along for the noisy, crazy, thrilling ride."

"From the foothills of the Himalayan mountain range to the desert vistas of Rajasthan, we connected with wonderful, welcoming people — Hindus, Muslims, Christians and Jains, so many smiles! Our photographs reflect the faces and movements of daily life in rural towns and villages where water buffalo sales and wedding processions dot the landscape with nearly psychedelic color."
