<p>Hey everyone. I don’t mean to hijack this thread, but I am new here and have been reading some of the information but wanted to know (since this thread is talking about Southern Schools) if anyone knows if SMU offers a BA in Theater? It doesn’t look like it from the website and I know I can contact them and ask, but everyone here seems so good at all this I thought I would ask here first! My son is interested in theater but also an academic person and loves other subjects and it probably going to go the BA route if he majors in theater in college. He has not been in theater long (just a couple of years) but is doing really well and loves it, so we will see what he decides. He just returned from a month at Tennessee’s Governors School for the Arts (summer program) and is considering his options. We are considering visiting SMU either way (BA or not) but it would be more attractive to him if they do offer this. </p>
<p>Also, if anyone reading this about Southern Schools has any suggestions of schools that have a strong theater department that offer a BA, that is very welcome too! He is not limited to the South but as far as travel goes, it would be easier to visit those now than those farther away from us. </p>
<p>Thanks so much for any help!</p>
