The catalog is not to be regarded as a contract. Dear Student, It is a pleasure to invite you to review the new listing of course work offered at Stevenson University. The 2009/2010 Stevenson University Catalog provides a detailed overview of our diverse curriculum and our expanding extracurricular activities. During the upcoming academic year, we will continue to expand our Learning Beyond concept, which encourages students to enhance their university experience outside of the classroom. We have developed strategies to support the pursuit of service learning projects, study abroad, internships, and many other experiences which will enrich the traditional university experience. We also have just opened the new Learning Beyond residence hall on our Owings Mills campus. This exciting new facility features living suites for specialized student learning communities as well as the offices of our Learning Beyond program and Career Services. Our theme, Imagine Your Future. Design Your Career®, is appropriate to our mission. The University offers an integration of liberal arts, science, and technology with a distinctive career focus. Through a process we describe within this catalog, Career ArchitectureSM, our dedicated faculty and staff work with students from the beginning of their freshman year to help them develop values-based decision-making and career management skills for their lifetime. This practical approach to education has increasing relevance in today's dynamic workplace. In fact, Stevenson continues to g ain recognition as a national leader in career-focused university education. Academic quality enhanced by a low student-to-faculty ratio remains a hallmark of a Stevenson education. We are proud but not surprised that the University has been recognized in recent years as a “Great School. Great Price” institution by the U.S. News & World Report annual college ranking issue. This ranking is based on many factors, especially on quality academics, peer review, and tuition. The rapid and lively transformation over the past several years has led to two vibrant campuses just a few miles apart. A new building for the Howard S. Brown School of Business and Leadership in Owings Mills has joined our premier residential housing complex, a sports and wellness center, and a dining room/student life facility. We have created a new and convenient entranceway to the campus, and the construction of a new gymnasium and expansion of the sports and wellness center will be completed by fall 2010. The thriving Greenspring campus offers advances in science facilities for undergraduate research, nursing simulation skills training, and outstanding facilities for our other majors, including a fully equipped theatre and art gallery. We pledge we will continue to provide a student-centered learning experience to help you pursue your career and to achieve success in higher education. As you review your catalog, I offer you my best wishes on your personal path and encourage you to take f ull advantage of the activities and facilities offered by Stevenson. Sincerely, Kevin J.

  • History of Towson University's MFA in Theatre Arts Program
    Towson University: College of Fine Arts and Communication M.F.A. in Theatre Arts History of Towson University’s M.F.A. in Theatre Arts Program The MFA Program in Theatre Arts at Towson University started in 1994 under the leadership of Juanita Rockwell. In its 20‐year history, the program has engaged in a number of ambitious projects (originated by both students and faculty), presented over 60 theatre projects and performance pieces and received a number of outside accolades for these endeavors. Students and alumni have worked with a variety of professional artists and have also gone on to create theatre companies of their own. They have also taught at a number of colleges and universities, and have embarked on successful professional careers at institutions around the country. Tours MFA productions have toured to international festivals in Bulgaria, Slovakia, Egypt, Poland and Hungary. National tours of shows have included trips to Boston, New York City, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Chicago, and Austin, Texas. In the summer of 2009, a group of MFA students did a Study Abroad Program to Wroclaw, Poland. There they attended the Grotowski Institute’s festival, “The World as a Place of Truth,” a celebration of the life and work of the famous Polish theatre director Jerzy Grotowski. The students also participated in a five‐day, six‐hours‐a‐day workshop with Teatr ZAR, the in‐house theatre company at the Grotowski Institute. In the summer of 2011, the program presented a showcase at the ToRoNaDa Space in New York City. The two‐week showcase, entitled Modicums, includes The Natasha Plays; Return to Sender by Shannon McPhee; The Title Sounded Better in French by Lola B.

  • The Advocate
    THE ADVOCATE Newsletter of the Towson University Retired Faculty Association Spring/Summer 2020 President’s Message I write this from my home where I am keeping away from others—even the gym has closed!! Who knew what this year would bring when I wrote my letter in the fall—or even a month ago? The year certainly has been busy. Under TURFA sponsorship, we have toured the Amazon distribution center, brushed up on skills to use Towson’s online interface, and learned about “The Power of the Presidency and the Impeachment Inquiry,” a talk given by Professor Jack Fruchtman (Political Science). While we planned another talk for the spring semester, the closure of TU’s campus has put that on hold. Our website, which has been redesigned by President-Elect candidate Ron Matlon and is being maintained by Peg Benner, is a good source for information about TURFA news and about ongoing and future TURFA programs and events: https://www.towson.edu/retiredfaculty/. We have just received notification from the president of AROHE (the Association of Retirement Organizations in Higher Education) that they will include on their web site the survey that TURFA conducted several years ago, tabulating the post-retirement productivity and activities of TU faculty and librarians, as a resource for all member institutions to use. This year has brought updates to operating procedures and to relationships with the main TU community. TURFA has a voting membership on the Academic Senate, and we continue to work to have faculty emeriti included in the University Catalog. As we address issues of concern to retirees, we find holes in past practices (years when the Senate minutes did not list faculty emeriti, for example).
