Judith Krauss honored by Boston College

Judith Krauss, professor of nursing, will be honored with an Alumni Achievement Award from the Boston College Alumni Association on Sept. 30.

The association cited Krauss for helping "focus national attention on public health policies affecting vulnerable populations." Krauss has been a faculty member at Yale since 1971 and served as dean of the School of Nursing from 1985 to 1998.

School of Music faculty win ASCAP awards

Six members of the faculty at the School of Music have been chosen as ASCAP award recipients by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers.

The faculty members are Kathryn J. Alexander, associate professor of music; Martin Bresnick, adjunct professor of music; John G. Halle, associate professor of music composition and theory; Ezra Laderman, professor of music; Frank Tirro, professor of music; and Jack Vees, operations director at the Center for Studies in Music Technology. Marcus K. Maroney, who taught at the school last year, also received the award.

The awards reflect the society's "commitment to assist and encourage ASCAP composers." Awards are based upon the value of each writer's catalog of original compositions, as well as recent performances in areas not surveyed by the society.
