Entertainment & Production Minor

Open to all

The department welcomes students of all majors to be involved in theatre life on campus. The department balances its resources to serve:

• Minors who are preparing for careers in the arts or in industries where knowledge of theatre production is required;
• Students who take the academic courses to meet the general education requirements or who find courses in drama and dance to be attractive components of a liberal arts education; and
• Students who participate in faculty-supervised co-curricular theatre and dance productions as a way of enriching their lives.
