LeSiege, former music professor, dies
Former professor Annette LeSiege, who chaired the music department during an important transition period, has died.
LeSiege, who died on Aug. 26 in Marina, Calif., served on the faculty from 1975 to 1982 and was chair of the music department for much of that time.
