Abstract
The Theatre Department’s Senior/Junior Seminar aims to be the culminating academic experience for Theatre majors at Rhodes, and provides you an opportunity to demonstrate your particular expertise in the three r’s:
research, reason, and ‘riting. The practical objective of the course is the production of the “Senior/Junior
Paper”, a required element of the Theatre degree, and all aspects of the course aim at this end. The structure
of the semester intends to provide stepping stones and benchmarks which will help you develop your paper.
Most classes will have something to do with your chosen topic and with the process of going from a vaguely
conceived idea to a well-reasoned and well-argued paper. The course also expects that you all will actively engage in helping each other, by reading each others’ drafts, offering sources, interrogating each others’ ideas, and so on.
