With economy reeling, TAMIU responds by offering a minor in theater


I guess now people can at least ACT like they have a job?

From The Laredo Morning Times/TAMIU press release
 
Texas A&M International University is now offering a minor in theater.

Chair of the Department of Fine and Performing Arts Bede Leyendecker said the new offering is the latest in the university’s arts offerings.

Leading this new degree are faculty members Gilberto Martínez Jr. and Vernon Carroll, she said.

Martínez joined last fall as a communication instructor in the department of Language and Literature and a theater instructor for the department of Fine and Performing Arts.

Vernon Carroll is a theater arts adjunct instructor.

He is also dean of Theater at LISD’s Vidal M. Treviño School of Communication and Fine Arts.

The first course offerings this fall are THAR 1310 Performance for the Stage, Monday-Wednesday-Friday from 12:30 p.m. to 1:20 p.m. and THAR 2340 Play Analysis Tuesday-Thursday from 7:30 p.m. to 8:45 p.m.
