persevere through years of persecution and oppression, through his love for
music and art. The film was created through a collaboration of the students and

share the story of someone who experienced loss and suffering, and discovered
himself and survived through his love for the arts.

Laura Scappaticci, Academic Enrichment Evacuation Drills - The mandatory, semi-annual emergency evacuation drills for the academic buildings will be conducted (weather permitting) during this week. These drills are conducted within the first ten days of each semester to minimize the possibility of disrupting tests, quizzes, projects or experiments. The Office of Environmental Health and Safety and Public Safety appreciate the swift, orderly participation of all building occupants whenever the evacuation alarm is activated. A good habit to develop is to close all windows and doors upon exiting your work space or classroom, and to stand clear of the exits and roadways to facilitate smoother egress and emergency responder access that may be necessary. To review the building evacuation procedures please click here and go to page 3.
