AMERICAN THEATRE: Ming Cho Lee, the Donald M. Oenslager Professor Adjunct of Design, will leave Yale School of Drama after the fall semester of 2017. At the time of his departure, he will have taught full-time at the School of Drama for 48 1/2 years, 34 of which he served as chair or co-chair of the design department.

This is so sad Ming is one of most top regraded design professors in the world. He made Yale succeed in so many ways, him along with the other MFA professors makes yale an amazing school. I think half of the professors who went to Yale have some story about Ming. IN tech Management Molly told us a story were Ming threw her model box pieces and called it shit piece by piece but said the floor was good. He is known for having a great eye into the young artists who go through the program. In the article it did not mention who his replacement is going to be. They will need someone of his caliber otherwise the students will suffer and thus Yale. People go to Yale to be taught at the caliber of Ming. I hope Ming keeps designing and keeps doing theatre and teaching even though he is not at yale anymore.
