Résumé

What follows is an apology for drama as a university study. I hope, however, that it avoids the thinly disguised plea for the status of the drama faculty which most such endeavors are. My concern here is with the undergraduate student who elects a major concentration in the field of drama in the expectation of achieving that increasingly more elusive academic amalgam, a simultaneous degree and education. If changing approaches in the university disciplines, rapid growth in content and techniques as well as changes in student attitudes are making
such an expectation difficult to fulfill in other areas, they make it doubly so in the study of drama.
