The Å·ÖÞ±­ÍøͶ_Å·ÖÞ±­ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø experience on display at the Art Institute

Instead of only telling prospective art history students about the Å·ÖÞ±­ÍøͶ_Å·ÖÞ±­ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø experience, Dr. Margaret Morse wanted to show them. With special guests Emily Vokt  ¡¯98 Ziemba, Stephanie Loria  ¡¯11 and Emily Cox  ¡¯11, Dr. Morse hosted an admissions lunch and tour at the Art Institute of Chicago in March.

Ziemba, director of curatorial administration for prints and drawings at the Art Institute, and Loria, senior administrator at Sotheby¡¯s in Chicago, shared their Å·ÖÞ±­ÍøͶ_Å·ÖÞ±­ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø stories and success in the art world.

Cox, with a degree in art history and education from Å·ÖÞ±­ÍøͶ_Å·ÖÞ±­ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø, earned a master¡¯s in art history and visual culture in London and a master¡¯s in secondary education. She now teaches in Ann Arbor, Mich.

¡°Having our alumni at the Art Institute truly made the event a success,¡± said Dr. Morse, associate professor of art history. ¡°Their stories allowed prospective students to envision what could be possible for them at Å·ÖÞ±­ÍøͶ_Å·ÖÞ±­ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø, but most importantly, beyond those four years.¡±
