Honors Jazz Event

Last night we had the pleasure of welcoming Jazz pianist, Roger Wilder to campus.

He delighted us with everything from his own pieces and music by Jazz greats like Charlie Parker and Chic Corea, to the Beatles and Coldplay.  He closed with the Charlie Brown theme (a request from the audience), and then was gracious enough to accompany me and three honors students to dinner.  These students especially appreciated what a rare and wonderful treat this was!
