Communication
I think one of the most important tools in helping students discover and live their purpose is getting them to understand not to take their experiences for granted. In teaching critical thinking, we often privilege this action as questioning but it can be a part of the creative process, too. As the British writer Neil Gaiman said, 'You can take for granted that people know more or less what a street, a shop, a beach, a sky, an oak tree look like. Tell them what makes this one different.'

Music Production
I love the creativity of songwriting; learning how to use software, such as Pro Tools and logic; and learning about the business side of music — all in one major.

Theatre Arts
We don't just focus on warm-ups and how to speak on stage. We also study the history of theatre, and we are encouraged to broaden our intellect by taking classes outside of theatre. This helps us become more knowledgeable when we are faced with challenging roles and situations.
