Accolades

Gwendolyn Audrey Foster, English, and Wheeler Winston Dixon, film studies and English, will have their latest work exhibited March 2-April 14 at the BWA Katowice Modern Art Museum in Poland. The exhibition, which will feature about 200 videos, will be screened continuously each day in a gallery dedicated to the pair’s work.

Sheri Fritz, earth and atmospheric sciences, will receive the Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Paleolimnology Association at its June symposium in Stockholm, Sweden. The honor recognizes individuals who have advanced the field of paleolimnology – the study of old biological remains and sediment to reconstruct the history of lakes, rivers and other inland waters – and furthered public understanding of long-term environmental change.
