Lunch with Honors

Honors is pleased to host LSA's new dean, Anne Curzan, at the fall 2019 inaugural Lunch with Honors! Dean Curzan is an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor, Geneva Smitherman Collegiate Professor of English Language and Literature, professor of English language and literature, professor of linguistics and professor of education. A popular professor who can memorize all her students' names, a regular contributor to Michigan Radio, a former U-M/NCAA faculty liaison, and a successful athlete herself -- these just a few of things that make Dean Curzan a very cool person.
