Congratulations to Ric Knowles!

On behalf of the School, congratulations to Ric Knowles who was made a University Professor Emeritus at convocation on October 21, 2017.  The honor is a richly deserved recognition of Ric's tremendous contributions to theatre as a scholar and practitioner.  Ric delivered the convocation address which spoke of the importance of recognizing, respecting and learning from difference.  It was an excellent address which hit the appropriate balance of encouraging words while making a clear, compelling point about being an engaged citizen in the twenty-first century.
