IUP President Dr. Michael Driscoll discussed the upcoming 150th anniversary of the university, and how things went this past school year at Thursday’s Council of Trustees meeting.
He said that the school has flourished this year, but the school still handled several difficult items.
Driscoll said that on May 17th, the University will celebrate its 150th anniversary. Driscoll said there will be many opportunities for the IUP community and the public to take part.
The Council of Trustees approved new Culinary Arts and Baking and Pastry Arts lab fees for the next two school years as the program is changing from a clock-hour based system to a credit-bearing system. The lab fee of $250 per lab will go towards ingredients, supplies, tools and maintenance of equipment. The trustees also honored Shagufta Haque who will step down as the student member and the Student Affairs Committee Chairperson as she will graduate on Saturday.
