75 Years of Summer Theater
UNC’s Little Theatre of the Rockies turns 75 years old this June, making it Colorado's longest running professional summer theater program. A longtime faculty member in the School of Theater & Dance chronicles the evolution of the program at http://www.unco.edu/news/spotlights.asp?ID=272

University of Northern Colorado’s Andrew Svedlow, Ph.D., has been awarded a Fulbright Scholar grant - his second such award in the past three years from the prominent U.S. international exchange program.

Svedlow, dean of the College of Performing and Visual Arts and professor of Art and Design, will lecture and conduct research in Ukraine. From March through May 2010, he’ll deliver graduate-level courses on arts administration, cultural management and creative leadership at the Kharkiv State Academy of Culture and the Lviv National Academy of Arts. He’ll also serve as an advisor in helping the academies create graduate programs in arts management.

Svedlow joins UNC Professor of Economics Marie Livingston, Ph.D., among UNC faculty receiving awards for 2009-10. Livingston earned a short-term grant to teach a course in Environmental Economics at the University of Economics in Prague, Czech Republic, in February and March 2010.

In 2007, Svedlow was selected for a Fulbright scholar grant and traveled to numerous institutions in Japan to provide expertise on effective models of arts administration. Other two-time Fulbright grant recipients at UNC include David Caldwell, Ph.D., dean of Humanities and Social Sciences, and Gary Swanson, Mildred Hansen Journalist in Residence.
