DIVISION OF FINE ARTS
The Division of Fine Arts includes the departments of Mass Communications, Music, Speech, Theatre, and Visual Arts.
The Division of Fine Arts faculty believe works of art are powerful means of expression. These expressions provide cultural identity, promote engagement, interaction, and become dynamic forces in shaping and reflecting civilization. Central to higher education, the disciplines of the Fine Arts Division provide curricula, creative experiences, opportunities for self expression, and performances that lead students to deep understanding of the arts. This understanding engenders tangible opportunities for outreach into the community and beyond.
Studying and participating in various modes of creative expression enhances communication skills and prepares students for social, aesthetic, and intellectual interaction. These creative expressions of faculty and students in mass communications, music, speech, theatre, and visual arts departments enrich the University and greater community.
Faculty & Staff
Each fine arts student is assigned an academic advisor (faculty member) and should consult regularly with the advisor to ensure proper course selection. Each faculty member has regular hours to assist students with advising or give students assistance with class work.
