When the students in French class heard the noises, teacher Jocelyn Couture-Nowak stiffened: "That's not what I think it is, is it?" Clay Violand, 20, a junior in international studies, pointed at the teacher and said, "Put that desk in front of the door. Now!" She did, but the door still nudged open, and a gun came into view, then a man. Violand dove under a desk as Cho began systematically shooting people, almost in rhythm, taking his time.

Among the new outdoor pieces are dry-stone wall enclosures that cradle giant fallen oaks, while inside there are rooms of stone, wood and clay. In another gallery all but a snaking ribbon of picture window has been covered in cow dung. In front of a curtain he made by pinning together 10,000 horse chestnut leaf stalks, Goldsworthy, 50, spoke to TIME's Michael Brunton about his inspiration and his homecoming...
