A hearty thanks to all who joined us for Vitruvian's second Robert Burns Night at the Snooty Fox in Nora. A fine dinner of beef and tatties was served (again we spinelessly forwent the haggis), followed by the traditional readings of the Bard's poems and songs, and the occasional bawdy Scottish tale - all delivered in the finest Hoosier-tinged Scots' brogue.
Welcome to our newest brother, Alex Ruthman! Brother Ruthman was voted on at Vitruvian's January meeting, after visiting us on a regular basis throughout last year. Alex earned his Ph.D. in Music Education last May from Oakland University in Michigan and is a member of the faculty of Indiana State University in Terre Haute. He has taught courses in music education, music technology, creativity-based music theory, and performing arts experiences for elementary educators. An active researcher and writer, Alex specializes in secondary general music methods, , arts integration, and music education technology.
