Take a look at the photo banner of our fantastic students at the top of the CoLA Weekly. They look Great! We solicited photos from some of our students to use in advertising and to find four new Faces of CoLA for the front of Millett Hall - big and bold. The Faces of CoLA will go up once the temperature gets above 40 degrees - hopefully soon. Until then, keep your eyes open for these wonderful students around campus and give them a shout out. They are great representatives of CoLA! I hope you will attend our Third Annual CoLA Authors Celebration scheduled for Monday, January 25 at 4:00 p.m. in the Millett Hall Atrium. There we will celebrate 13 outstanding CoLA faculty whose books or CDs were published in 2015:
Christopher Chaffee, Music Christopher Oldstone-Moore, History
On Tuesday I joined a full house in Schuster Hall to experience the amazing Kenny Aronoff, named the #1 Pop/Rock/Studio drummer by Modern Drummer Magazine for five consecutive years! This rock star has performed with artists like Jon Bon Jovi, The Rolling Stones, Lady GaGa, and many more. Kenny combined high-energy rock performances with motivational lessons on life success to inspire the audience to follow their passion and pursue their dreams. Congratulations to the School of Music and a special thank you to Jerry Noble and the entire Percussion Studio for bringing an artist of such high distinction to WSU's cam pus!
