Although too late for this printing, the Alumni College hosted a weekend seminar focusing on Bernard Pomerance's acclaimed play The Elephant Man. Participants enjoyed a performance of the campus production on Friday evening after a reception and dinner, then a morning of talks and discussions of the play by Professor of Psychology Len Jarrard, Associate Professor of English Suzanne Keen, and the play's director Joseph Martinez, accompanied by members of the cast. The Alumni College hosts a weekend seminar on the subject of drama, music, or literature each winter or spring. The programs give alumni, parents, and friends an enviable opportunity to enjoy the arts in good company, to learn more about specific works, and to explore their meanings in a seminar format.
Participants stay in local inns, with the program, receptions, dinner, and lunch on campus.
