I am very honored to have been designated as a 2014 University of Louisville Alumni Fellow.   The Alumni Fellow awards are presented annually to graduates who have proven to be exemplary ambassadors for their UofL schools and colleges through their contributions to their professional fields and their communities. UofL schools or colleges nominate Alumni Fellows and final selection is made by the Alumni.

Today in Comstock Hall, UofL. Michael Tracy, Director of the Jamey Aebersold Jazz Studies Program at the University of Louisville, received the 2014 Alumni Fellow award. These awards are in recognition of superior accomplishments in teaching, research, and public service.  In the picture, Graduate Teaching Assistants along with director Michael Tracy after their performance. — with Andrey Junca Goncalves, Claudia Martinez, Thomaz Souza, Michael Tracy, Thiago Wojtowicz, Iara Gomes and David Israel Cuenca Ordonez.
