Apple Creativity and Learning Lab, Opened 07.09.07

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. Dr. James Frankel, Dr. Lee Whitmore, and Brad Smith have been the instructors for the July 2007 teaching sessions for the Performing Arts Camp, the doctoral and masters studnts, and an open enrollment evening program.

Jay Chattaway and Jens Lindemann at SU Presidential Inauguration

The Board of Trustees of Shenandoah University commissioned Hollywood composer Jay Chattaway to wrote an original work to celebrate the Inauguration of the 16th President of Shenandoah University, Dr. Tracy Fitzsimmons. Lindemann played this work (Shenandoah Fantasy for Trumpet and Orchestra) during the joyous and festive inauguration on September 26, 2008--with the composer conducting.

Chattaway and Lindemann spent the week interacting with Shenandoah students and faculty.

The Shenandoah Conservatory Orchestra has increased in both size and quality and played beautifully.

This year's Conservatory Orchestra has students from China, Poland, Taiwan, Japan, Denmark, Mexico, Venezuela, Colombia, and Costa Rica.
