After nearly fifteen years at McNeese, Morri Creech moved on this past spring. To be closer to family, Morri accepted an excellent job at Queens College in Charlotte, North Carolina. The undergraduate and graduate students there will undoubtedly benefit from his dedication, his humor, and his wisdom.
Taking over for Morri as Poetry Coordinator at McNeese will be Amy Fleury. Amy returns to Lake Charles after teaching at Washburn University in Kansas for the past decade. Her book of poems, Beautiful Trouble, was winner of the Crab Orchard Review Poetry Prize. Amy was recently awarded an Amy Clampitt residency, which will take place in Lennox, Massachusetts in fall 2009.
