Multiple departments across the university are collaborating with area museums and other venues to host exhibits, lectures and workshops that will highlight the importance of Black Mountain College’s influence within the Appalachian region’s creative, educational and political movements. The spring 2018 semester will address the legacy of BMC through three interrelated projects that will explore the theme of “Place and Change."

CAS Quoted:
"Dr. Liutkus went above and beyond what I expected from a good professor in the course I took from her, my Honors Thesis, and in our personal and professional interactions. Awarding her will show how much she is respected in and out of the classroom for her instruction and mentorship by both colleagues and students."
- Jessica Wilson '10, Geological and Environmental Sciences
