2009 Annual Alum Day & Chowder Fest
Every year the English Department, in conjunction with Clark’s Alumni-In-Residence event, serves up hearty soups and clam chowder as part of an evening discussion with distinguished alumni who once studied English in our department. This year’s speaker was Cathryn Morse.
Cathryn Morse, BA '04, MA '05, Ivan Lipton, graduated Clark with a BA in English and an MA in Urban Education and Teacher Research from the Education Department. Cathryn has been working in the Worcester public school system as a high school/secondary English teacher (assigned to North High School) for 5 years and although she has taught grades 9-12, she currently teaches freshmen and sophomore English and and AVID classes, with focus on reading strategies, analytical writing, and critical thinking. Cathryn also coaches cheerleading for North High School and teaches religious education for kindergarten and first grade.
