<p>Princeton</a> University - Internationally renowned artists appointed to head Lewis Center programs</p>
<p>"Susan Marshall has been named the first director of the Program in Dance and Joe Scanlan has been selected as the new director of the Program in Visual Arts in the University's Lewis Center for the Arts. </p>
<p>Both new faculty members are internationally renowned artists. Marshall has been the artistic director of the critically acclaimed Susan Marshall & Company of New York City for the past 23 years. Scanlan is a sculptor and installation artist who has been an associate professor in the Yale University School of Art.</p>
<p>Their appointments demonstrate Princeton's expanded commitment to embrace the creative and performing arts as an essential part of its educational mission, according to Paul Muldoon, chair of the Lewis Center. In 2006, President Shirley M. Tilghman launched an arts initiative to increase and enhance programs in the creative and performing arts, and to establish the University as a global leader in the quality of its offerings and in their integration into a broader liberal arts education.</p>
