Honors in Art Panel



The Honors in Art Panel will take place on November 12

, replacing our meetingfor that Thursday. The Admiral Stanley room is our preferred choice and is openfor that day. The room fits 40 people. The panel will be open to everyone and

we’re planning on three faculty members and one student speaking.



The panel will answer issue #2 of the honors study topic: How do the fine artsshape and reflect the paradox of affluence? Questions for the speakers areprovided in the study guide and there will be follow up questions. Prof. Cuttita

will be the first faculty member to be approached and later on we’ll try to

approach Prof. Nicoli. Some members have brought up the idea of invitingalumni artists or approaching the resident curator. Also, we should look intovideotaping or audio recording the panel.

Mentoring Program



Those who attended the mentoring seminar had fun. Michael Murphy was agreat speaker. Some great ideas came out of the seminar, such as a timer duringpresentations and info cards for mentors. So far we have 8 mentors but you can

still be a mentor even if you didn’t attend the seminar.

New Members Update



We have 73 new Phi Theta Kappa members, which is the highest number

we’ve

ever had. Just a side note, the number of mentees for each mentor will be73/number of mentors.
