Back-to-school season kicked off with an opening ceremony for the Marlow Early Childhood Education Campus on Wednesday at UNLV.

It took eight toddlers to hold the line. Standing between UNLV Interim Dean Chris Heavey and Joseph Morgan, interim dean of the College of Education, on Wednesday afternoon the children clutched a chain of colorful paper rings stretched across the entrance of the brand new Marlow Early Childhood Education Campus — until Morgan tore it in half, opening a new home for the Lynn Bennett Early Childhood Education Center and the UNLV/CSUN Preschool.
