Next week, MUW will host a campus visit by the Southern Association of College and School Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), which is the latest part of its reaccreditation process with the regional organization. Faculty and administration have been working hard for several years to submit documentation on behalf of the university, and the on-site visit is part of the process.

For me, many beautiful memories revolve around days spent twirling around to all sorts of music. Whether it was Jimi Hendrix, The Doors or Elvis Presley, I grew up with a vast array of sounds and excitement. I knew all the words to “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” at a very early age.

I even went through a phase where I adored nothing but Nirvana and gazing at a Kool Aid hair-soaked Kurt Cobain.

Dr. Nora Corrigan has been at MUW since 2008. Although MUW is a small college, Corrigan says that is one of her favorite things about teaching here. MUW’s strong sense of community is what she loves most about this school. Having a more personal relationship with students and colleagues has led Corrigan to be pro-active in more projects outside of the classroom, with her favorite being a study abroad program in Ireland for the summer of 2014.

With any historic place, there are going to be upgrades. Recently, MUW decided to renovate Fant Memorial Library. Construction on that building is coming along smoothly. Now, MUW is continuing with campus renovations. This time the renovations will take place primarily in the residential buildings. These renovations will begin this semester, but one phase, the green space behind Kincannon and Jones Halls, began construction last semester.
