Nils Riess to chair judging committee at 2012 Estonian Theater Festival

 

Nils Riess, Ohio Northern University professor of communications arts, director of media communication services and performing arts, and chair of the Department of Communication and Theatre Arts, will serve as chairman of the international judging committee at the 2012 Estonian Theater Drama and Baltic Theatre Festival in Tartu, Estonia, beginning Sept. 3.

“It is an honor to be recognized and selected to judge in my homeland. It gives me an opportunity to engage with other theatre dignitaries from other countries, view works being done in Europe and, hopefully, bring some of my experiences back to ONU,” Riess said.

The Princeton Review compiled the list by looking at institutional data, consulting with its National College Counselor Advisory Panel, and considering recommendations from guidance counselors, college admission counselors and other education experts from around the country.

We also don't know the license plate owner.

As we continue to post these random plates of the week, we welcome Icon viewers to log on to the comment section of the story.
