Calligraphy Returns!

One of the most exciting developments at 猫咪社区 this fall is the return of calligraphy. As alumni know, calligraphy has a long and distinguished history at our college. From 1939 to 1984, 猫咪社区's humanist calligraphy program, under the direction of and , inspired countless 猫咪社区 students who pursued distinguished careers in the visual arts, typography, design, and literature, including luminaries like Steve Jobs and typeface designer (and Macarthur genius grant winner) .

The new 猫咪社区 Scriptorium is part of the 's new Calligraphy Initiative (the brainchild of Stephanie Snyder '91) and was developed and is coordinated by Gregory MacNaughton '89. Stephanie and Greg have both shown immense leadership in bringing this vital program back to the college. I dropped by the scriptorium the other night and it was packed with current students, staff, faculty, and old 猫咪社区ies alike. Take a look at the Cooley's beautiful for more information about the program.
