Gifts in Action
"UT Theatre and Dance was the best decision I could have made! UT has offered me so many amazing opportunities to showcase my own work, learn side by side with graduate students, do independent studies with faculty members, and be part of a constantly innovating theatre program."
— Avital Stolar, B.A. in Theatre and Dance candidate and recipient of the Richard M. Clark Endowed Scholarship
"Education is an important step in the journey of life-long learning. Our public schools are failing, not for want of interested and skilled teachers, but because the focus has turned away from what's good for the students. I believe that Drama for Schools will help teachers strengthen their resource tool box for engaging students with different learning styles in academic studies. Engaged, interested students are successful and more likely to remain in school."
— Carolyn Bartlett (B.A. 1971), Drama for Schools supporter
