Art Department Faculty Retirement

Professor Margaretta Kren was recognized this past year for her
distinguished service to Kansas State University. Her retirement
followed a fruitful 32-year career. Having earned the rank of full
professor in 1995, Kren dedicated herself to both research and
teaching. She was awarded the Kansas State University
Distinguished Graduate Faculty Member Award in 1989. Her
presence in the department will be greatly missed and we wish her
the best.
