Student Blog: Working Part-Time - A Personal Reflection
by Student Blogger: Alexa Malerba - June 11, 2024

It’s finally summer break! The sun is shining, the weather is warm, and the vibes are immaculate. Most people see this as a time to relax and get a break from school (which is the case for me as well). However, summer vacation also brings other responsibilities. I still make time to have fun, but most of my days are spent working at my part-time job. I work at a retail store, and while it can get exhausting at times, I enjoy it overall. It’s taught me a lot about the professional world, and most importantly, about myself.

Student Blog: Rejection Hurts
by Student Blogger: Brynna Weir - June 1, 2024

Rejection is never easy. You might think that after a while, it will sting less. Wrong. It will always hurt because you will always mourn the possibilities. After a thousand no's, “no” #1001 will still be hard: hard on your heart, your morale, and your passion.

Student Blog: Burnout: Top 5 Symptoms
by Student Blogger: Jules Donohue - June 1, 2024

I'm back with another post on BURNOUT. If you're a college student, or any type of student (or a typical functioning adult), you probably know what I'm talking about. Burnout is a feeling that is almost unavoidable and sometimes it sneaks up on you before you even realize it is happening...

Student Blog: Integrity is Everything
by Student Blogger: Brynna Weir - June 1, 2024

For theatre majors specifically, integrity is what will set you apart. Of course you need to maintain academic integrity; you can’t go about rewriting Shakespeare. When performing, your own integrity, as an actor, is just as important.

Student Blog: Your Type
by Student Blogger: Olivia Mathis - June 1, 2024

Type can be a tricky topic. While it is important not to put yourself in a box as an actor, it is also smart to understand that sometimes people are going to expect certain things from you based on your appearance, your energy, and how they perceive you.

Student Blog: The Power of Comedy
by Student Blogger: Ellie Weaver - June 1, 2024

While drama is super important to the theater industry, the value of comedic productions cannot be ignored. Comedy deserves just as much recognition and praise as drama receives. Comedic shows should in no way be considered “cheap” or “less than” just because they are meant to be fun.

Student Blog: Junior Year in Review
by Student Blogger: Austin Watts - June 1, 2024

Junior year of high school is infamous for being the busiest and most intense. In my experience, I had to balance two AP classes, two performing groups, standardized testing, and more.

Student Blog: A Different Perspective on Cheating
by Student Blogger: Carly Galbreth - June 1, 2024

College opens many opportunities. Some of them are enriching, like performances and internships. Others, like cheating and using artificial intelligence, can jeopardize learning. The fear of punishment from professors and the university are threatening, but my greatest motivation against cheating is my desire to be prepared after graduation.

by Student Blogger: Tatiana Atehortua - June 1, 2024

Overall, I genuinely believe that these past three years have gone exactly as they were meant to, and I wouldn't change a thing. I look forward to growing my skills as a musician outside of the classroom, and I look forward to what comes next. For everyone starting at a new school soon, I hope you have a wonderful time and that you end up doing what you love, whether there are changes to your plans along the way or not.

In order to keep up my daily training, I knew I needed to find a personal routine that I could uphold whether or not I had room in my budget for classes, coaching sessions, and lessons.

Student Blog: 'Honesty Is The Best Policy' - My Experience With Academic Integrity
by Student Blogger: Alexa Malerba - May 28, 2024

Academic integrity is incredibly important to me. It’s resisting temptation to take the easy route while also having the courage to do the right thing. While it may be appealing to look up the answer or have someone else do the work for you, it’s incredibly important to resist doing so. In the long run, you’ll be doing yourself a favor by remaining honest.

Student Blog: The Rusty Month of May
by Student Blogger: MJ Kirsche - May 26, 2024

I got home from school two weeks ago, had graduation, and now that my break has finally started… I have a million things to do. While I’m excited to be kicking off a year of no school, coming home for the Summer started what has been a work heavy few weeks of applying for jobs, starting rehearsals for my Summer show, and figuring out how I plan to stay on top of my theatre game while out of school for the upcoming academic year. ​​​​​​​

by Student Blogger: MJ Kirsche - May 26, 2024

Surprise! I graduated college! Today marks the one week anniversary of me receiving my Associate’s Degree of Arts in Theatre.

Student Blog: A 'Wicked' Double Act
by Student Blogger: Ava Karlstad - May 22, 2024

Being a twin is such a blessing, but it does come with the potential for comparison.  I would say, though, our experience in all of these areas has been perfectly complimentary which allowed each of us to find our own niche.

Student Blog: Beating the Stress of Choosing Classes
by Student Blogger: Tatiana Atehortua - May 28, 2024

Remember that there are people who are there to help you if you look in the right places. You are given advisors you can go to, but they don't have to be the only people you seek advice from. There are plenty of professors, or even other students, who will be happy to help you create plans for your classes, and back up plans if things go wrong.
