Caine College of the Arts

Department of Theatre Arts

Theatre Arts Teaching Minor (2.75 GPA) (30 credits)

The Theatre Arts Teaching Minor is an approved teaching minor for Secondary Education students majoring in other subject areas. Students enrolled in this minor must interview with the Theatre Education faculty advisor, submit a portfolio that includes their diverse theatre experiences to date, and be accepted into the teaching minor. This portfolio is used for advising purposes, as well as for scholarship consideration. The portfolio is required for entrance into the STEP Program, and USOE currently requires a portfolio in lieu of a praxis exam, in order for the student to be considered “highly qualified,” according to the “No Child Left Behind” regulations.

Minimum Grade Accepted: An overall minimum grade of B- is required for all theatre courses. Teacher certification specifies a minimum 2.75 GPA.

Theatre Arts Department Requirements


  • Usher at one department production in the Morgan Theatre and one department production in either the Black Box or Caine Lyric Theatres each semester. (Students take completion slips to be signed by the House Manager and submit them to the office following the close of the production.)
  • Attend all production strikes.
