Students will gain the skills and knowledge they need to succeed within the performing arts milieu, and a breadth of knowledge that will enable them to think critically: they will examine the historical and cultural context of the performing arts, critique the socio-political and cultural environment of the performing arts industry, and acquire the skills and tools to navigate their way through and build their own careers within this industry. They will also form a production company and develop and mount their own collaborative effort – an original, interdisciplinary performance event. Creating the production will challenge students to explore, master and apply the interdisciplinary performance theory and knowledge they have studied, and enhance their creative and performance abilities. Graduates will demonstrate competency in various aspects of producing and performing interdisciplinary projects: communication, teamwork, leadership, negotiation, critical self-awareness, problem-solving and decision-making. They will possess the core competencies required to succeed in the highly competitive world and business of the professional performing arts.

  • Lillooet Between Sechelt and Shuswap Jan P. Van Eijk First
    Lillooet between Sechelt and Shuswap Jan P. van Eijk First Nations University of Canada Although most details of the grammatical and lexical structure of Lillooet put this language firmly within the Interior branch of the Salish language family, Lillooet also shares some features with the Coast or Central branch. In this paper we describe some of the similarities between Lillooet and one of its closest Interior relatives, viz., Shuswap, and we also note some similarities be­ tween Lillooet and Sechelt, one of Lillooet' s western neighbours but belonging to the Coast branch. Particular attention is paid to some obvious loans between Lillooet and Sechelt. 1 Introduction Lillooet belongs with Shuswap to the Interior branch of the Salish language family, while Sechelt belongs to the Coast or Central branch. In what follows we describe the similarities and differences between Lillooet and both Shuswap and Sechelt, under the following headings: Phonology (section 2), Morphology (3), Lexicon (4), and Lillooet-Sechelt borrowings (5). Conclusions are given in 6. I omit a comparison between the syntactic patterns of these three languages, since my information on Sechelt syntax is limited to a brief text (Timmers 1974), and Beaumont 1985 is currently unavailable to me. Although borrowings between Lillooet and Shuswap have obviously taken place, many of these will be impossible to trace due to the close over-all resemblance between these two languages. Shuswap data are mainly drawn from the western dialects, as described in Kuipers 1974 and 1975. (For a description of the eastern dialects I refer to Kuipers 1989.) Lillooet data are from Van Eijk 1997, while Sechelt data are from Timmers 1973, 1974, 1977.
