As another year comes to a close, we wanted to acknowledge the incredible work going on in Moreland Hall. We recently celebrated our student award winners, whose writing across our literature, film, writing, and applied journalism classes stood out to our panel of judges. Congratulations are in order, too, to three of our colleagues who were promoted. These well deserved accomplishments capped off an exciting 2019-2020 academic year for SWLF.
