Proposals for summer projects—which must reflect your sense of social responsibility as an artist and have educational value to you as a student—are due March 1, 2006. If interested, pick up a Summer Grant information sheet in the Dean’s Office today. What will you be doing next summer? 2005-06 C.V.
