Activate, Engage, Produce:

This year you will see these

three words over and over as we

take a deep dive into creative

experiences. Artists will be present

in classrooms, creative learning will

take place all over across campus,

and work created here will extend

to other venues.

I hope you will explore many of

these creative experiences this year.

Creative Curricular Initiatives is a

new program for faculty, staff, and

students to explore the arts in new

ways (see page 10).

I am especially pleased to be

working with several “Made@GT”

projects on the Ferst Center stage

this year. Take a look inside this

brochure and join me!

Imagination comes alive at Georgia

Tech because our students, faculty,

and staff experience art at the

intersection of engineering, science,

and technology. We strive to

provide opportunities that engage

creative interests and help our

community find and express their

own artistic voice. This season,

Arts@Tech will once again reach

across campus, bringing unique

and bold programming that will

excite and enrich the entire Georgia

Tech community and greater

Atlanta. My wife, Pat, and I are fans

of jazz, blues, and big band, and

we are always thrilled to see our

students perform and share the

stage with the professionals. We

are looking forward to enjoying

the likes of Adam Ben Ezra,

Rebirth Brass Band, Miguel Zenon

Quartet, and our very own GT Jazz

Ensemble. Thank you for joining us!

It is with great anticipation that we

begin the new academic year with

such a wide array of arts, cultural,

and entertainment activities at

Georgia Tech.

Many are surprised to learn how

many of our students have strong

backgrounds in music, writing, or

visual or performing arts. Just

as surprising, many students

get involved in new creative

experiences while here.

Every year I look forward to seeing

the incredibly talented students

who perform in the School of Music,

and in the DramaTech productions.

I hope you’ll join me at Surround

Sounds, the play High Ground,

the Art Crawl, or any of the great

student events this year!

Welcome to a Great Year of the Arts on Campus!
