“Doing anything in theater, anything in the arts, helps you in most careers. That’s why I always advocate. In my day, the focus really seemed to be more on the humanities and comprehension, things of that nature. Then around 2010, the main focus started shifting all to science, technology, engineering and mathematics, which is more like the other style of education. I feel like when you focus on the humanities, you at least have better rapport in public speaking or communicating with people, so that, even if you don’t know everything about a certain topic, you can establish those connections and have conversations to get where you need to go. I feel like even just taking that out of theater and being able to build that rapport with people on a quick basis, definitely helps.” – Bradford Rolen, Campus Supervisor
