Winter 2009 issue
FROM THE STUDENT AFFAIRS ADVISOR
Joke Bradt, PhD, MT-BC
Passages 2008 was another great success! Thank you, Immaculata University, for hosting this event and generously offering to cover all refreshments expenses! Thank you, Melissa Cook and Kevin Hahn, for your excellent job as Passages coordinators. Thank you to the local committee and Drs. Anthony Meadows and Lilian Eyre for your help with all the logistics. I would like to strongly encourage all presenters to continue to present and submit proposals for our regional as well as for the National conference. The MAR conference committee always greatly appreciates presentations from students and new professionals; you bring new, innovative ideas and new energy to our region. Please, don’t be afraid to submit a presentation proposal. You can ask your advisor or supervisor for help/feedback. Next year’s Passages will be at Nazareth College! Evangeline Williams (MSU alum, new professional) and Noah Potvin (Temple University grad student) will be the new Passages Coordinators. A call for papers will be distributed in March.
The MARAMTS EB and I are looking forward to seeing you at the spring conference – they will have beautiful music therapy decals available as their fundraiser. Make sure to support them! Their fundraising supports many student scholarships each year.
