It’s Halloween in the Barefield College of Arts & Sciences but in the Department of Theatre & Dance costume shop, piecing together a costume is a year-round task.

The costume shop has classrooms with domestic and industrial sewing machines, four fitting rooms with stage lighting capabilities, a lounge for the graduate students studying design and technical production, a large storage space for stock and vintage pieces, a jewelry room, a large vintage pattern collection, a wig and makeup studio, and a craft room with a spray booth and dye studio.

Two BCAS faculty members and members of the Alabama-Greece Initiative have been awarded Eramus+ Mobility grants, which offer opportunities for faculty and staff to engage with international universities.

Dr. Vaia Touna, an associate professor in the Department of Religious Studies, and Dr. Nate Jones, an associate professor in the Department of Biological Sciences, will both visit Aristotle University in Thessaloniki, Greece, in the spring of 2027.

Touna will visit the School of History and Archaeology and engage with undergraduate and graduate students through teaching activities, deliver a public lecture and meet faculty to explore opportunities for future collaborations in teaching and research.

Jones will guest lecture on watershed science and management at the School of Forestry and Natural Environment.

How can scientists explore distant galaxies using particles that pass almost unnoticed through the Earth? Join us for an exciting public lecture exploring the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, a remarkable experiment that transforms a cubic kilometer of Antarctic ice into a giant telescope.

"Ghosts from the Cosmos: IceCube, the Nobel Prize, and a New Window on the Universe" will be October 26 at 5:00 p.m. in Russell Hall 159.

Free and open to the public. No physics background required!

Through the Levitetz Leadership Program (LLP), graduate students Ekaterina Menkina and Verenis Amezcua were able to transform their anthropology research in Texas into a documentary, "A Story Written in Stone."

Through a Small Grant, and eventually a Large Grant, the two were able to produce a film that has been presented at several conferences.

Now, LLP is accepting applications for this year's Levitetz Seed Grant funding, due Wednesday, October 21, 2026.

These grants are for students to initiate, or further develop, a for-profit business, social entrepreneurial / non-profit project, or creative endeavor. Current UA undergraduate and graduate students are eligible to apply, except those who are full-time UA employees.

Two levels of funding are available:

*Small Grant (up to $1,000): available for projects in the initial or early developmental stages.

*Large Grant (up to $3,000): a limited number of large grants are available for existing projects that have received previous Levitetz or similar types of funding. You will be asked in the application to identify previous funding sources.
Details and full instructions are included in the application.

For more information about the LLP and the Seed Grant program, visit the LLP website or contact Dr. Julia Cherry ([email protected]).
