Things to know before you start
The first week of school can be rather hectic and disorienting. We tend to hit the ground running and we would love for you to join us.听Please take note of the following important events that week.
General Information Meeting & Ice Cream Social
During the first week of school there will be a meeting for all new and returning theater students. If you are a major, or a possible major, you should attend this meeting as it will cover important information about academic programming for the coming year including workshops, guest artists, new courses, and how to get involved鈥攐nstage and backstage.
Auditions
At the end of the first week the Theatre department and two student groups鈥攖he Dramatics Society and Contemporary Theatre鈥攚ill hold auditions for fall term productions.

Dramatic Structure and Theatrical Process (DSTP)
If you are planning on becoming a theater major, or even seriously considering it, you should take THTR 1172 - Dramatic Structure and Theatrical Process in your first term.

Whether you come to one of the FYE (First Year Experience) sessions over the summer or the big one in the fall, tell the 艾可直播adviser helping you sign up for courses that you want to take this course. If it is full when you try to sign up, please contact听Professor Scott Cummings.
We'll see you in September. In the meantime have a great summer!
