Piedmont College President James F. Mellichamp received the Ragatz Distinguished Organist Alumni Award at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music’s 2015 Fall Organ Conference. Named for the late Oswald Gleason Ragatz, who led the organ department at Indiana University for more than 40 years, the Ragatz Award is presented every two years to a Jacobs School graduate based on their contributions to the organ and church music fields. Mellichamp made a presentation to the conference titled “Your vocation lies elsewhere: Reflections of an organist turned college president.”
