NOTE: The first and second year plans alternate. Kinesiology and Pedagogy are in odd numbered years for first year plan and history and music resources are in even numbered years for first year plans.
Students who receive financial support from the College of Arts and Sciences in the form of fellowships and assistantships will be assigned to various responsibilities each year including production related jobs each year, choreography for MaDaCol the second year and teaching, if preferred, in the third year. All students are expected to be cast in productions each semester and must participate in MaDaCol the first year to be considered to choreograph for the group in the second year. Stipends will increase nominally annually, associated with the assigned jobs.
