The Department held its annual awards ceremony in the State Room East of the Indiana Memorial Union on Friday, April 5 to celebrate the excellent academic work of our undergraduate and graduate students as well as the dedicated teaching of our top Associate Instructors. Professor Margaret Gray once again paid homage to former professor Grace P. Young, in whose memory several awards were made, by wearing a hat, since Young always considered this essential teaching attire. She taught French at IU in the genteel decades of 1917 to 1956.
To conclude the ceremony our department chair, Massimo Scalabrini, presented the Trustees Teaching Award to Professor of French Linguistics Barbara Vance, and also said a fond thank you and farewell to retiring Professor of Italian Cinema Antonio Vitti.
