<p>@ManVan - That’s very nice, and it even looks current as they show one 2014 grad on Broadway. Thanks for sharing it! I wish NU did something similar. The alumni list on the Northwestern website looks like it was last updated for 1997 grads, even though I personally know of 2014 grads currently on Broadway in Cabaret, Book of Mormon and The Real Thing, plus lots of Film, TV, National Tours, Regional Equity Theatres, Summer Stock, etc. </p>
<p>Hah – I suppose this thread’s title could refer both to recognizing “rising stars” who are still in their program and those who have graduated. 
</p>
<p>As has been pointed out, though, whether or not schools recognize their “rising stars” isn’t particularly relevant to how well a school cultivates a culture of Mastery versus a culture of Success, and perhaps students who are overlooked in college casting do gain some motivational advantages through frequent Near Misses.</p>
