Check out our honors signature events:

Does art imitate life or does life imitate art? Do you want to know what happened behind the scenes prior to curtain call? Experience the human condition as it plays out before your eyes. Interact with cast and crew after a local stage performance to analyze the meaning, interpretation and cultural significance of the work. We've seen performances at Folger Theatre, Everyman Theatre, Single Carrot Theatre, Spotlighters Theatre and Center Stage, to name a few.

Are you seeking a meaningful spring break? Every March, we take a few days to create a tangible, positive difference in our local community. It’s a rewarding experience and an awesome resume builder, and you will discover your hidden talents while having fun, meeting new friends and making a positive difference.

Museums are more than a venue for appreciation and exploration; they are products of interpretation. Have you ever thought about museum ethics? Ponder these questions: Does history go to the victor? Who assigns value to history? How is our public history defined and presented? Join us as we explore similar museums or galleries in one day and consider how each creates a distinctive sensory experience using similar historical data.

Each semester we analyze a consistent theme through various perspectives grounded in history, politics, culture, community, psychology, ethics, religion, art and more. Join us for presentations by nationally renowned guest speakers whose ideas and expertise will challenge you to think about things differently. Check out our past series, Ten Years Later: The World 9/11 Made and Thought for Food.

The documentary will not be denied! This evolving film medium is an extremely powerful tool for social justice and change. We will delve deep while watching the original "reality TV." Prepare to be compelled, shocked, inspired and well informed—all at once! View, evaluate and debate provocative topics and, if you're so inclined, find out how to change your world. You bring an open mind, and we'll bring the popcorn.

Go ahead and talk with your mouth full. These one-hour events are created for students, faculty and staff to enjoy informal and out-of-the-classroom dialogue. Feed your curiosity as we explore thought-provoking topics over a delicious lunch. Some of our past topics include:

A final dress rehearsal should go exactly as do the upcoming performances, but often Murphy lays down his law to create a few surprises and impromptu drama. Be the first to experience the full grandeur of the opera ... with a twist.
