The Longwood Graduate Program will be holding its spring ERD in the beginning of May. Bring your old printers, desktops, laptops, radios and other electronic equipment to the Commons in Townsend Hall and we'll make sure they get recycled appropriately.
We are excited to announce that current Second Year Fellows Sara Levin Stevenson, Wonsoon Park, Quill Teal-Sullivan, and Nate Tschaenn were all selected to give oral presentation at this year's APGA conference in Pheonix, AZ.
