Associate Professor of Theatre and Director of Technical Theatre,
Tracie Lynn Duncan,
in her role as a member of New Players Theater in Columbus, OH will be
presenting: Mark Twain's THE DIARIES OF ADAM AND EVE, staring NPT
company members, award winning actors, and real-life sweethearts Mark
Mann and Danielle Mann.
The Diaries of Adam and Eve is based on EXTRACTS FROM
ADAM’S DIARY (1904) and EVE’S DIARY (1906). Twain’s own unique take on
the Creation Story shows us that, as Shakespeare said, “the course of
true love never did run smooth”.
Ms. Duncan serves as New Players Production Designer and
Technical Director, in addition to serving on the artistic board.
History and Political Science
On Friday, February 10,
Marc Sable, Assistant
Professor of Political Science, gave a talk entitled, "Egypt after the
Arab Spring," at the University of South Carolina at Beaufort's Osher
Lifelong Learning Institute. A large audience of between 80 and 100
offered well-informed questions about Egypt's recent elections, the
character of the Muslim Brotherhood and the implications for foreign
policy.
The
group was formed out of the Bethany College Japan Outreach program.
The group drums to promote awareness and understanding of Japanese
culture. Taiko drumming is powerful, dynamic and fun.
