University of Nebraska at Kearney
1998-2000 Undergraduate CATALOG
Forensics: UNK has traditionally supported a strong forensics program. Students have won numerous national, regional, and state awards in debate and individual events. The program is available to all interested students, providing them opportunities to refine speaking and leadership skills along with the opportunity to travel and meet students from other states.
Theatre: The University theatre program combines a solid academic curriculum with a vigorous co-curricular production schedule. Several major productions, as well as a season of experimental works, are presented each year. In addition, the department presents the Great Platte River Playwrights' Festival each summer, which focuses on the development of original scripts.
The theatre program is designed to meet with a threefold purpose: (1) to prepare students for graduate study in the theatre arts, (2) to educate high school teachers, and (3) to provide intensive preparation for the professional theatre.
Dance: The Music program offers a minor in dance with pre-professional emphasis. Students may perform in the annual musical, dance concert, dance workshops, and lecture/ demonstrations.
