Faces of RIT
Evoking Emotion Through Music
A difficult task to accomplish, yet a joy to teach, Kruger enjoys composing for visual mediums. As chair of the Department of Performing Arts and Visual Culture, Krugar focuses on enhancing a scene with music while keeping the audience immersed in the medium.
Giving a Voice to a Community
As an alum of the journalism major, Tianna has put into practice the storytelling platforms and opportunities RIT provided to her. Today, Tianna is editor-in-chief of Open Mic Rochester, an online magazine that gives a voice to Rochester’s black community.
The Hands of Time
At RIT’s makerspace you’re free to design, test, tinker, and build. Hatch utilizes The Construct to create 3D-printed mannequin hands for the Genesee Country Village & Museum for its 19-century clothing exhibit.
Beyond Human
Seeing the world through the eyes of a different species is just one way we connect with the world around us. Through faculty-led research, Wegman is working to improve the quality of life for North American River Otters by studying their visual perception.
