Curb College Presents Mulloy Award of Excellence to Dr. Bob Fisher

Dr. Bob Fisher, president of Belmont University, was announced last weekend as this year’s recipient of the Robert E. Mulloy Award of Excellence, and the presentation was made at the beginning of the Best of the Best showcase held on Be Belmont Day.  

Doug Howard, dean of Belmont’s Curb College of Entertainment and Music Business, said, “With the combined leadership and commitment of Dr. Fisher, the University Trustees and Senior Leaders, the Curb College has grown into one of the most respected music business and entertainment colleges in the nation. The Mulloy Award is the highest award given by the Curb College and serves as a sincere and heartfelt way of saying thank you from every Curb student and graduate, and from every faculty and staff member.”
