Instructors seek to invigorate students with intellectual and creative challenges and to assist each in developing critical thinking skills. 

Instructors of the Theatre Arts Department hope to inspire, nurture, challenge, and empower students and audiences to raise levels of consciousness and compassion through the taught curriculum. Each instructor is committed to the belief that knowledge of and participation in Theatre Arts is central to human existence.
