        Design and Production Minor Policies on Student Grades and        Performing

Any student receiving a grade of 1.0 or less for any course offered        through the Department of Theatre and Dance will be ineligible for         casting in any student directed or choreographed production during the        semester immediately following the semester in which the failing grade        is issued. Eligibility in faculty directed or choreographed productions        will be left to the discretion of the directing faculty member and the        Department Chair.

** For Theatre Majors (who are already required to take a Special Projects        course or an Internship), the Special Projects course required in        the Design and Production Minor must be in a different field of study        than that taken for the Major.
