<p>Lysistrata – That is an interesting list, but not too surprising. In the early days of the 20th century, acting was not at all a respected profession; certainly not something that you would consider studying in college. Comparatively few people went to college until after WW II. And the BFA Theater degree is a fairly recent development; there weren’t many schools offering it when I went to college in the 70’s – and even fewer had a BFA MT degree at that time. It would be interesting to find out when the BFA programs really took off – maybe some of our college faculty participants would have that info.</p>
