The New York Times Sunday Book Review included a review of “Bob Dylan: Like a Complete Unknown” (Yale University Press, 2011), the new book by David Yaffe, assistant professor of English at The College of Arts and Sciences, among three new books on Dylan.

A recent “Bridge Street” program (view clip) on 9WSYR featured an interview with Syracuse University’s James S. Abbott, music technology administrator and instructor in the Setnor School of Music in the College of Visual and Performing Arts (VPA), and University Professor Peter Blanck, chairman of the Burton Blatt Institute (BBI). The program’s topic is the new summer course “Studio Recording/The Inclusive Recording Studio: Summer @SUbCat,” which will give SU students the opportunity to teach Syracuse high school students with disabilities about the art of music production and recording engineering in a professional recording studio. Sponsors of SUmmer @SUbCat include BBI, University College, and the Setnor School as part of the Music Technology Access Project (MTAP).
