Staff Council

John Allemeier, associate professor of composition in the Department of Music, and associate professor of English Aimee Parkison are among 15 artists across the state who received a 2013-14 North Carolina Arts Council Artist Fellowship Award in the categories of songwriting, composing and writing.
Fellowships are awarded to artists to support creative development and the creation of new work. Recipients were selected by panels comprised of artists and arts professionals with expertise in each discipline. 

The Staff Council Fall Festival drew a large crowd to the Barnhardt Student Activity Center Tuesday, where attendees enjoyed free food, music, games and other activities.
As part of this annual tradition, the council sponsors baking and photography contests and a scavenger hunt.
Jackie Thompson, student financial aid, took top honors in the bake-off for her lemon pound cake; Erin Stehmeyer, kinesiology, took second for her “Peachy Upside Down Cake.”
