Alumni
We are justifiably proud of our College of the Arts alumni and former students, and are grateful for the giant impact and artistic footprint they leave as actors, administrators, animators, artists, business owners, cinematographers, choreographers, composers, curators, dancers, designers, directors, dramaturgs, engineers, filmmakers, illustrators, leaders, musicians, painters, printers, sculptors, singers, teachers, technicians, producers, public servants, writers, and more.
Studying the arts provides our alums with a solid background 鈥 not only in their specific artistic discipline 鈥 but with the ability to problem solve through creative and practical approaches, strong communication and teamwork skills, and empathy and appreciation for humanity and culture. Important tools for success in any profession and in any life.
