Thursday, March 18, 2021, through Sunday, March 21, 2021, three Muskingum students and two Muskingum judges entered a virtual world of forensics competition between seventy-nine colleges and universities in the U.S. and five hundred twenty (520) student participants in two time zones.

Antasio Holley is an Assistant Principal at Paint Branch High School in Montgomery County Public Schools, Maryland. He serves as the AP for the 9th grade cohort. That career makes sense to this education major originally from Cincinnati, OH. At Muskingum, he was a varsity football player and a founding member of Cultural Awareness for Racial Equality (C.A.R.E.) Coalition. Antasio has been happily married for 15 years and is dad to two awesome sons ages 14 and 10. He enjoys coaching his son's football team, traveling, golf, and grilling.

Muskingum University Chair and Professor of Psychology Dr. Dinah Meyer was interviewed on February 22, 2021 by WBNS 10TV in Columbus and by WOSU Radio/NPR on February 23, 2021 about Pandemic Psychology and some reasons why people are reluctant to have the COVID vaccine once it becomes available to them. 

Dr. Meyer is currently teaching a course on the “Psychology of Pandemics.”

"The core of it really is that a lot of people just don't trust science because they don't understand it," she said.

More than 400 prospective admitted students and their families participated in the annual Scholarship Days, through their choice of virtual or in-person sessions conducted within careful social distancing protocols.

These potential members of the Fall 2021 incoming class engaged in faculty-led small group discussions, explored curricular and co-curricular opportunities in-depth, and toured Muskingum.

Muskingum University alumni couples gathered virtually to enjoy a night of wine, catching up with friends, and celebrating Valentine’s Day with a virtual wine tasting “Mingling with Muskies” on Friday, February 12, 2021.

Participants registered in advance and placed their tasting kit orders, which included eight different 6-ounce bottles of wine, and then logged on to Zoom to enjoy the event.  A great time was had by all!
