Announcement from Chair Geoffrey Turnovsky
I’m delighted to introduce my colleague, Associate Professor Beatrice Arduini, who, on July 1, takes over as the next chair of French & Italian Studies. My thanks to everyone, students, colleagues and staff, for making my five years as chair rewarding and exciting. We certainly dealt with some challenging times, but managed meaningful accomplishments along the way, like revamping the French and Italian curricula. I look forward now to focusing on new projects, such as developing our newly created minor in Textual Studies and Digital Humanities, which is housed in FIS, and my own research.
Bonne continuation and Congratulazioni to Beatrice, as she takes on the duties of chair, and to everyone: colleagues, staff, and students. Above all, I wish a hearty congratulations to our graduating seniors and our MA students! It’s been a sincere pleasure working with them and I’m excited to hear about their next adventures. Have a great summer!
