NMSU Theatre Arts and the American Southwest Theatre Company Arts support New Mexico State University and its College of Arts and Sciences by providing quality education and enriching culture and diversity through scholarship and creative activities. We promote social mobility and leadership skills, supporting life-long discovery and the creation of thoughtful, responsible, and passionate citizens through a broad-based, liberal arts education that combines courses in theatre performance, history, literature, theory, design, and technical production. The department serves as a major cultural outreach asset to the campus and community through its affiliation with the American Southwest Theatre Company, and values learning and knowledge, diversity, respect, collaboration, leadership, outreach, integration of theory and practice, new theatrical works, via rigor and commitment.
