LWC Arts Administration major prepares future arts leaders

The curtain went up this school year on one of Lindsey Wilson College's latest undergraduate majors, and the early reviews about it are quite positive.

Lindsey Wilson's arts administration major enrolled its first students this school year, with the mission to prepare graduates to be leaders in arts organizations. Lindsey Wilson's program is one of only three undergraduate arts administration programs offered in Kentucky.

"There are scores of arts organizations throughout Kentucky and our region who need strong leadership, and this major will prepare our students to meet those organizations' needs while also teaching them how to be advocates for the arts in their community," said theatre professor Robert Brock, who helped create the major.

One of the interdisciplinary major's strengths is that it draws from other Lindsey Wilson programs, including the college's robust business, communication and English majors, as from courses in art, journalism and music. That well-rounded education will make arts administration graduates even more appealing to prospective employers, according to Brock.

LWC student from Ukraine interns on Capitol Hill

Lindsey Wilson College student Anatoliy Voloshyn received a front-row seat last fall on how public policy is shaped and made. The experience also provided him an opportunity to support his native Ukraine.

Voloshyn, who is a business administration senior from Cherkasy, Ukraine, took part in the Capitol Hill Internship Program in Washington, D.C. Lindsey Wilson is one of eight U.S. colleges and universities who are members of the distinguished internship program, in which students live on Capitol Hill while interning in government or non-government offices and take part in seminars that enrich their internship experience.

Voloshyn served as an intern in the office of New York Rep. Tom Suozzi, whose 3rd District includes parts of Long Island, Nassau County and Queens.

"It was just an unbelievable experience, I learned so much," said Voloshyn.
