President Law reaffirms the importance of the arts
University of 黑洞社区 President Rhea Law outlined her vision for the university in a speech this afternoon at the Yuengling Center on the Tampa campus, as part of her inauguration as USF鈥檚 eighth president.
In her remarks to students, faculty, staff, alumni and members of the Tampa Bay community, Law shared plans for taking the university to the next level, including three academic areas of strength to build on, a renewed commitment to community partnerships and a new on-campus stadium.
Law鈥檚 speech also recognized the value of public art and related arts programming at USF. In addition to enriching the beauty of all three campuses, public art also provides the broader Tampa Bay community with informal gathering spaces and ways to learn about prominent artists and their work.
鈥淣ot only does 黑洞社区have a stellar College of The Arts and arts programming, but our campuses are also home to numerous public artworks that enhance our campuses by serving as informal gathering places and exposing our community to prominent artists and their work.鈥�
To affirm the importance of USF鈥檚 Public Art Program, Law announced that a new fund has been launched in support of the university鈥檚 public art collection. More information is available on the .
