Dr. Frank Fenley

Dr. Frank Fenley received his B.S. in music education degree from the University of Illinois (Champaign-Urbana) in 1967. Upon completion of his degree, he was designated a Bronze Tablet Scholar, the highest undergraduate academic award granted by the university. He served as a graduate assistant in applied flute at the University of Missouri (Columbia) and was awarded a master's degree in music education in August, 1968.

From 1968-1971, Dr. Fenley was a member of the music faculty at Kansas State College of Pittsburg. Since 1971, he has taught applied flute, flute techniques, flute ensemble, music history, and music appreciation at UCM. He also serves as the coordinator of graduate studies in the department.

During the 1974-75 academic year, Dr. Fenley was a University Fellow at the University of Illinois (Champaign-Urbana); during the spring of that year, he held an administrative assistantship with Dr. Robert Bays, the chair of the School of Music. Dr. Fenley completed requirements for the Ed.D degree at Illinois in August, 1976.

Dr. Fenley's articles, reviews, and abstracts have appeared in the Missouri School Magazine; Emerson Flute Forum; The Instrumentalist; Flute Talk; The Flutist Quarterly; CMS Proceeding/The National and Regional Meetings, 1989; and The NACWPI Journal. He has also presented two Greer-Oppenheimer lectures on the UCM campus in the area of rock music. During the spring semester, 1989, Dr. Fenley held a research professorship in the College of Arts and Sciences. During the 1995-96 school year and the spring and fall semesters, 1977, he functioned as a mentor for two music students in the McNair Central Achievers Program (McCAP), a federally-funded research program for students who have demonstrated a potential to do graduate work.
