This spring, in addition to the 10-week introductory class, Penn State DuBois will also offer a six-week intermediate class for those who would like to increase their sign language skills or have specific needs for their job. Marla Jo Ball is the instructor for both classes being held in DuBois. They are both Act 48 approved for continuing education credits.
Building upon his long career in literary research and education at Penn State DuBois, Richard Kopley, distinguished professor of English emeritus, has spent his time in retirement breaking new ground in the study of literature. His latest book, “The Formal Center in Literature: Explorations from Poe to the Present,” examines previously undiscovered and undiscussed structures in composition that are used by some of recent history’s most notable authors in various works.
Penn State DuBois’ Associate Professor of Economics Evelyn Wamboye has been invited by the British Broadcasting Corporation to share her expertise on economic issues in Africa. She will take part in a broadcast interview to be aired Dec. 5, for the BBC’s “Focus on Africa” radio program, to discuss how African countries can create employment for their booming populations.
