I have two questions... One: Does the theatre department accept play scripts from students to be produced? Two: What is the criteria for students to participate on the campus radio station?

    To be COMPLETELY honest, I have no idea what the correct answer is to the first question. My advice would be to look around on http://www.theatre.appstate.edu/ or call/email the Chairperson of the Theatre and Dance Department, Marianne Adams at (828)262-3028 or adamsm@appstate.edu. I'm sorry I'm not very helpful on that question, but I do more or less know the answer to the second question! Basically, you sign up at the Club Fair at the beginning of the year or online at https://sdr.appstate.edu/sdr/clubs/436 and let them know exactly what you're interested in. Pretty much, interest is all that's needed to participate. If you're interested in being a DJ, there's probably an interview process, but other than that, it's pretty easy to participate. I hope that helped!

I looked on the ASU site and saw that there was a preforming arts department, do you know if there are courses in more behind-the-scenes stuff? Like make-up artistry or costume design?

    First of all, let me just apologize for how long it's taken me to reply to this! I've been on break, so I'm not quite thinking straight yet :p I just looked under the "Theatre" category in my class search and "The Stage Environment", "Production Running Crew", "Theatrical Costume", "Makeup", "Stage Management" and many more are classes, so I'm guessing, yes. To be sure, though, I would contact Lynne Waugh at either (828)262-2167 or waughlw@appstate.edu. I've never spoken specifically to Mrs. Waugh, but everyone I've ever met in the Advising Center is nothing less than extremely helpful! Good luck and again I apologize for my late reply!
