Congratulations to Professor Roderick Coover for his being the recipient of this year’s Faculty Award for Creative Achievement. Presented by the Provost, the award recognizes outstanding creative work that is considered to have national and/or international significance. Each recipient receives a $5,000 stipend and framed certificate.

Not one — but two Owls were featured on Ellen this week! Along with creative luminaries Kelly Rowland and Angelica Ross there was an emotional surprise when Kalen was also joined by our very own acting professor and alum Amina Robinson (TFM ‘99, ‘03)!
