<p>If she thinks she wants to teach, Ball State offers a theatre education degree that would pair nicely with the history/social studies. (At the end of the program, she would be certified to teach). There may be other schools wit this option. Has she also considered a BA program? Those tend to be wider in scope, allowing for more of the “traditional” liberal arts courses. Another thought would be to find a school with the academic chops she is interested in, and a very strong student theatre program. She could take voice lessons, possibly take dance either within the community or as a PE elective. There are many paths to performing and to learning. You have some time to think outside the box. I find it quite responsible of her to be thinking the financial ramifications of a crippling amount of college debt, regardless of major. Very mature young lady.</p>
