U of O Arts & Administration Program
10 Year Anniversary
TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY
1994/96 - 2004/06
This fall the Arts and Administration Program admitted its tenth class of graduate students. Spring 2006 will mark the tenth graduating class. Over 120 students will have graduated from the program at that time. A two year celebration of this first decade will begin this fall term. The purpose of this celebration will be to honor the founders of the program, acknowledge the intellectual legacies of those who contributed to the socio-cultural and multicultural orientation of the program, bring attention to the first class of students who graduated from the program, document the unfolding of the program over this period, and feature the research of current faculty within the context of the larger field.
