Forte Festival Announcement
The annual Forte Festival of Creativity will be on hiatus this spring due to the upcoming move of the COFA dean’s offices in mid-April and the Department of Theatre in early May to the new Center for the Arts. Continuing the festival in April this year is not feasible due to the confluence of packing, relocating offices and managing everything else on the academic and performance calendars in April. Nevertheless, we still have productions of Hairspray, the Pattin Piano Concert and a BFA Gallery show running in the Forte slot. We intend to revive Forte next academic year! Thanks for your understanding.

Volunteers Needed: Mock Interviews for Montevallo High School
As part of our relationship with Montevallo High School, the Family and Consumer Sciences Department is honored to host mock interview sessions with MHS seniors on Thursday, March 19, from 1 to 2 p.m. in Bloch Hall. These mock interviews will give graduating students practice honing their interviewing skills prior to graduation, which will better prepare them to enter the work force or further their education.
This is also a wonderful recruitment opportunity for students considering the University of Montevallo for college. Approximately 80 students from MHS will meet with two interviewers in 15-minute sessions. In order to accomplish this task, a minimum of 45 faculty/staff volunteers are needed to assist with the interviews. We will provide the interview questions and evaluation sheets; all you need to do is to plan to arrive at 12:45 p.m. and stay until 2 p.m. on March 19 and assist with the interviews.
Please consider supporting the Montevallo High School students as they prepare for their future. If you are willing to participate, please complete this form. Once we have heard from everyone who is willing to volunteer, we will send out a schedule with your assigned room number and all the details you need.
