| Dr. Marian Monta, UTPA communications professor, spoke about plans for upcoming University events, including the 75th anniversary celebration, during the recent UTPA Alumni Association Faculty Forum at The Tower Club in McAllen. | |
The yearlong celebration, which runs from September 2002 to August 2003, will include various events and activities. The UTPA Department of Communication will dedicate two plays to the celebration.
“We were trying to find out what was showing in the theaters 75 years ago, and that was a play called Good News,” Monta said. “We’re going to do a remake of the play.”
The Faculty Forum series gives the Alumni Association the opportunity to shine the spotlight on prominent faculty members who are invited to talk about their areas of expertise.
