From the Dean's Desk

Hello Everyone!

Fall is my favorite time of the year. For those of us in education, it signifies a new year, a new beginning with new possibilities. That is certainly true for the College of Fine Arts. As we gear up for a full year, one that (hopefully) will not be limited by pandemic protocols, we are excited to return to what we do best 鈥� the hands on teaching, training and mentoring of our students and the public presentation of that training in the form of performances, presentations and exhibitions that can be enjoyed by the general public. To that end, we say, 鈥淲elcome to the Arts! We are open for business!鈥�

-Dean Rodney Miller
