Welcome to the Williams Grad Art List, edited by Andrea Gyorody (MA ’09).
Greetings! It was such a pleasure to meet many of you for the first time last month at the all-class reunion to celebrate 50 years of the graduate program — and to see off Karen Kowitz, who retired after more than 35 years of service. I owe Karen a huge thanks for helping with the administration of the Grad Art List; she’s already missed!
This is a big edition, with lots of jobs and even more CFPs. Thank you to the MANY alums who sent in job postings—please continue sharing! At reunion, folks across all generations of the program told me how helpful these listings are, so please help me continue to make them as robust as possible. Thanks in advance!
