The Ear comes of age: 21 issues!

Professor Virginia Shank welcomes the audience.



Last night saw the publication party for IVC's literary journal, The Ear.  It was a grand evening distinguished, Rebel Girl thought, by the shy and shining pride the readers took in their work as they shared it with the audience. Take a look and see if you can see what she saw in their faces. Congratulations to all.
