Fulbright Awards Announced
Two CSUN Theatre professors have been chosen for next year’s Fulbright Program, the flagship international educational exchange program. It is very unusual for two Fulbright awards to go to faculty in the same department in the same year.
Dr. J’aime Morrison
Dr. Morrison was awarded one of the only Fulbright Awards offered in the specific area of Theatre Movement. The Fulbright award will allow Dr. Morrison to research and develop a new dance theatre piece based on the work of Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa and I will also teach a course entitled "Performance and the Body" at the Instituto Politécnico de Leiria.
Lecturer Annie Cleveland
Annie Cleveland will be a guest lecturer in the Department of Theatre at National Taiwan University in Taipei for a full year's teaching appointment under the auspices of the Fulbright Foundation for Scholarly Exchange.
She will be teaching Beginning and Advanced Costume Design with a emphasis on digital design, as well as a Stage Makeup class and a Clothing and Culture course. The appointment will begin September 2009.
With regret we announce the passing of Dr. William Schlosser, a founding faculty of the University and a longtime chair of the Theatre Department. A memorial will be held in early Summer.
