New museum honors Marine Corps FINE ART & ANTIQUES DR. LORI VERDERAME
WHILE AMERICA'S BRAVE and highly trained military men and women and their families help weave the fabric of contemporary American history today, the heroic story of one of the elite branches of the U.S. military, the Marine Corps, has been put on permanent display. The National Museum of the Marine Corps opened its doors on Nov. 10, 2006, on a 135-acre site adjacent to the U.S. Marine Corps base in Quantico, Va. Interesting enough, the birthplace of the Marines was actually a pub in Philadelphia called the Tun Tavern. Legend has it that Capt. Samuel Nicholas began recruiting Marines in the Tun Tavern on Nov. 10, 1775. By 1798, an official act of Congress actually created the U.S. Marine Corps. The museum's architecture rivals that of major national museums, and its collections tell the story of the Marines.
Fine arts raises admission standard
The Faculty Senate passed a measure yesterday to allow the College of Fine Arts to be more selective in its admissions, requiring students to show artistic talent in addition to academic merit.
Maurice Sevigny, dean of the College of Fine Arts, said a three-year pilot program has asked students to audition for music, theatre and dance programs. Applicants to the art, media art, art history and art education programs will need to submit portfolios or written statements. . .
