Theatre and Dance - Mission, Vision

Mission

The School of Performing Arts at South Dakota State University fosters and provides opportunities for creativity, performance and both artistic and intellectual understanding through the study and practice of performing arts within contemporary and historical cultures. Mindful of the university’s Land Grant mission, we strive to provide outreach-engagement that creates meaningful connections among students, the university and the broader community.


Vision

The School of Performing Arts endeavors to promote the public good through experiential and collaborative opportunities in educational, creative and research activities.
