It may be September, but we're still dreaming about study abroad this past summer!

Check out Jack Jones on his study abroad trip to England and Wales. He's a current sophomore pursuing a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies with an emphasis in Business and an Emphasis in Social & Behavioral Sciences to build diverse skill sets to support a family-owned business. He's off to a great start, making the most of his college career and taking advantage of opportunities across our campus. We're so proud to have him in our program!

We are pleased to announce the recipient of our Fall 2026 IDS 450 Capstone Scholarship, Alisha Kelly!

In the capstone research course, Alisha will seek to explore how effective artist management and marketing strategies contribute to long-term career sustainability in the entertainment industry. The topic is personal to her as it reflects the work she hopes to perform professionally - guiding artists, helping them build authentic brands, and supporting their growth in a competitive and constantly evolving environment. She stated, "My research will examine how managers and marketing teams use interdisciplinary tools such as digital analytics, narrative branding, cross-platform promotion, and audience segmentation to shape an artist's public identity. I am especially interested in how these strategies influence not only short-term viability but also logn-term stability, emotional connection with fans, and the adaptation to industry shifts."

Alisha has been an excellent student to work with! She is passionate about working with artists and helping them achieve their goals. Please help us congratulate her on her success thus far!

You may partner with us to support students like Alisha by providing a gift of any size to the Interdisciplinary Studies Greatest Needs fund using the link in our bio. We appreciate your generosity!
