According to Professors Scott Thomson and Bruce Henderson, codirectors of forensics, the award will be offered each year to recognize a student who not only excels in competition, but also represents the College admirably while traveling across the country. The award is named for Professor Frank Sharp, a member of the speech communication department for 40 years and debate director for nearly 30 years. Professor Sharp has been approved for a terminal sabbatic leave for 2009-10. The inaugural recipient of the award, Daniel Parks, participated in both team debate and individual dramatic competitions, as well as taking part in group performances at a number of performance festivals. |
