We’ll ask Carlow’s President, Suzanne K. Mellon, PhD, about this special initiative, Carlow’s “Hub for Workforce Development and Innovation”.

Then, musicians from the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra are making sure that there will be live music, at some of the performances of the Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre, this coming season. The musicians’ fund presented the Ballet Theatre with a $10,000 contribution, towards that goal.
