Senior Vice-President and President-elect Tracy Fitzsimmons realizes the importance of providing students and faculty with the necessary tools that enable self-reflection and the sharing of creativity with others. On July 9, 2007, an Apple technology lab was opened in Ruebush Hall, Room 111. SoundTree did the installation, has three highly qualified instructors on site (from July 9--July 20), and will return for faculty training in August 2007 before the start of classes.

Terrance McKnight to WNYC
In my position as an arts leader, I have been fortunate to meet many individuals with special qualities. Communication and the performing arts is an interest of mine--and an area that I believe all of our students need to in tune with. During my time as director of the Schwob School of Music (2004-06) I was able to meet and work with many talented individuals. Terrance McKnight of Georgia Public Broadcasting is one of the best arts communicators whom I have ever met/seen/heard. He graciously came to speak at a student convocation at the Schwob School and made an evocative and poignant presentation that will always stay with me.
I send him heartfelt congratulations in his new post with WNYC, where we can all hear him on Internet broadcasts.
