Students may obtain academic credit for their participation. Each ensemble usually performs on campus at least once per quarter. Some ensembles also perform at other special campus and community events. Another opportunity for musical growth and exploration is the noncredit Community Music Division of the Department of Music. A 10-week program of noncredit classes and private lessons is offered each quarter.
Private lessons are available on most orchestral instruments, as well as guitar, piano, and voice.
These lessons are taught by faculty, advanced teachers, and selected university students majoring in music. Students must provide their own instruments. The Wright State University Theatre presents a variety of productions yearly, including drama, musical, comedy, and dance performances, in the Festival Playhouse and The Dorothy M. and Isabel Herbst Theatre. All students, regardless of major, may audition for the productions. Auditions for the various productions are announced on the theatre call board, located in the Creative Arts Center.
