Future Focused
Academic Advising for the Spring 2012 semester has begun in earnest. Emerson students are thinking about the future this week while meeting with faculty advisors and counselors in the Academic Advising Center to map out the courses to be taken within both the department and liberal arts curriculum.

Growing Through the Arts
We talked with Samantha Gassel, a recent graduate of Emerson’s Theatre Education: Non-Performance program, on her view of the arts in education. Samantha is currently student teaching high school students in Chicago and knows firsthand the value of the arts in schools. “Arts in education is not only teaching arts, it is using the arts…

Uncovered: A Brimmer Street Alumni Connection
By Jenna Clarke Yesterday, I found myself putting together the rather daunting piles of files for the 2004-2005 Season and I came across a purple Emerson College binder in the middle of the folders.

One of our favorites was this video dated 10/30/08: [vimeo]http://vimeo.com/25409322[/vimeo] In this…
Unexpected Tasks at Emerson Stage
By Christine Bernard If anyone asks, working at Emerson Stage for the summer is…pretty exciting! We get to participate in flash mobs, use our artsy Emersonian hands to plan out the next season (specialty of Jenna Clarke), and even dig through archives dating from 1989. Sometimes however, some of the daily tasks we’re asked to…
Tony Time Continues
By Tyler York I’ve been listening to The Scottsboro Boys soundtrack all day, which is fitting given that I failed to mention Emerson alumna Jacki Barlia Florin, one of the producers of this musical, which was nominated for 12 Tony Awards, in my post yesterday. Ms. Barlia Florin was involved as a producer not only…
It’s Tony Time!
by Tyler York Who doesn’t love an award show? Especially one honoring those working in the theater? I had a great time watching The Tony Awards last night… How about that opening number?! You may not have been aware, but there are a number of Emerson College alumni who worked on some of the Broadway shows…
