Target Admission: Fall 2008 This is an intensive program focusing on students creative writing skills while generating a portfolio of work. The degree is designed for students planning to directly launch a career in playwriting or to transfer into a four-year theater program.. The structure of the AFA in Playwriting will be as follows: 30 credits General Education English/Communications 9 cr Math/Quantitative 3 cr Psychology 6 cr GER Electives 12 cr 33 credits in theater, to include playwriting, basic acting, and dramatic literature courses A total of 63 credits are required for the degree. Relation to the Academic Mission of the University of Alaska The AFA in Playwriting is both consistent with and supportive of the missions of the University of Alaska and PWSCC. The program is designed to provide a learning environment in which aspiring playwrights and other theater students can increase their knowledge of plays and playwriting. As all communities are better served by the increased quality of life that are the hallmarks of the arts and humanities, the AFA in Playwriting further fulfills the University of Alaska mission goal of public service pertaining to diversity of peoples and culture. This degree also builds on the rich cultural and personal enrichment opportunities provided by the Last Frontier Theatre Conferences emphasis on playwriting and expands that experience into a full associate level degree. This conference is recognized nationally as a leading educational venue for playwrights. Developing an AFA degree in Playwriting is a natural extension of this conference and its mission. As a comprehensive community college, PWSCC builds educational opportunities that expose students to the breadth of liberal arts education. This degree program will enhance the PWSCC mission in achieving those goals and support cultural offerings for our students and the community at large. State and Community Needs Valdez has an active community of playwrights who need more offerings in the playwriting field; many of these playwrights have had their work staged outside of Alaska, and meet regularly to work on their craft. Through the encouragement of the Theatre Conference, there have been an increasing number of playwrights in Alaska over the past fifteen years. AFA graduates will have completed course work toward the other theatre degrees inside of the UA System. Like the Conference, the degree program should prove a draw to students from outside the state, including graduating high school students and adult learners who attend the Theatre Conference. Student Opportunities Graduates of this proposed two year degree program will have an advanced level of understanding of dramaturgical concepts, beyond what is often found at the end of a Bachelors program. This knowledge is useful not only in writing, but also in directing, acting, and technical design. If they choose to go on to a four-year degree, they should be ahead of schedule in terms of their theatre knowledge. Graduates would be encouraged to stay in the UA system by transferring to the theatre programs at either UAA or UAF, and would be well prepared for those programs. There are numerous programs in both in Alaska and throughout the U.S. where they will have the opportunity to apply their craft. Student Outcomes: Published PWSCC catalog outcomes to be met by this degree include: -- Develop communications ability (effectively interpret, send, and respond for varied audiences and purposes) -- Quantitative skills -- Develop the ability to make value judgments and independent decisions -- Develop multicultural understanding and global awareness -- Develop aesthetic responsiveness Enrollment Projection Given the unique nature of this program and a heavy initial publicity push, we believe that it will be able build to strong enrollment. Additionally, the nature of this program is such that local students may enroll in many individual program classes without actually entering the degree program. 4-Year Program Enrollment Projection AY 2008AY 2009AY 2010AY 2011Enrollments4101416Graduates02610 It is expected that enrollments will increase in all Art courses listed as core to the program. Projected enrollment growth includes not only those students admitted into the program, but also students pursuing other degree programs and obtaining elective credit and non-degree seeking students pursuing lifelong learning. Research opportunities In playwriting, the equivalent of research is the creation of a body of work, and learning from experiencing hearing that work read aloud. Impact on Existing Technologies and Facilities All needed facilities and technology for this degree are already in place. Delivery Considerations All playwriting programs will be available via Smart Board and video conferencing to PWSCCs extended campuses. Introduction to Playwriting and Contemporary Theatre have already been taught to other campuses successfully. Program Budget Summary The projected budget is based on the costs associated with the existing AAS degree currently being supported with general funds (PWSCC Instruction), which includes instructional personnel and direct expenditures. The planned expense budget has no negative impact on current institutional costs and reflects expenses already absorbed in PWSCC Instruction. However, with increased enrollment in the AFA degree, this program can expect increased revenues. It is believed that the new AFA degree will generate a need for a full-time professor to head this program by its third year, when it is anticipated that a cohort of students will warrant the additional position. At that time, it is estimated that student revenue will significantly offset the additional salary and benefits of a full-time, tenure track faculty position, and plans are in place to fund the remaining position costs from the general fund.
