OSU student Brown brings art into STEM with dance-inspired senior project

Oklahoma State University arts administration student Leah Brown is using her background in dance to integrate art into the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, turning the well-known acronym STEM into STEAM. “For my senior project, I've developed an educational tour... designed for children ages 5 to 10,” said Brown, adding that the tour will take place at Oklahoma’s Pawnee Bill Ranch and Museum. “The whole point of the tour is to explore technological innovation and the way of life during the industrial revolution. I plan to do that through dance and movement.”
Leah Brown's senior project will take place at Pawnee Bill Ranch and Museum, Nov. 2-5.

Summer in Bozeman: How an OSU theatre professor is impacting rural arts engagement

Wed, Mar 15, 2023

In the summer of 2022, Eric Barker, an Oklahoma State University assistant professor of scenic design, found himself with a Research Jumpstart/Accelerator Grant (RJAG) but nowhere to spend it; his original plans to work with the Richmond Shakespeare festival in Richmond, Indiana, had fallen through.   The RJAG grant is designed to aid faculty in getting their research up and running following the COVID-19 pandemic. Barker knew he needed to find another research project and did just that, landing the chance to work with Montana Shakespeare in the Parks (MSIP) in Bozeman, Montana.
