THEA 125
All students cast in a Bobbi Biron Theatre Program production are required to enroll in a one-credit THEA 125 Theatre Practicum during the semester of the show. This will be done automatically unless it causes the student to be enrolled in more than 19 credits for that semester. In that case, the student should inform the director immediately so appropriate steps may be taken.
