Performing Arts Labor Unions And Young Industry Professionals: An Analysis Of Current And Future Relations, Caroline Thompson
Honors College Theses
This thesis surrounds the evolving topic of unionization, particularly within the performing arts industry. As trends and regulations develop that tend away from labor organization, with an increase in non-Equity professional opportunities and the enforcement and growth of legislation such as Janus vs. AFSCME and state-by-state right-to-work laws, unions such as the Actors’ Equity Association (AEA) have more reason to market themselves than ever before.

Exploring The Academic/Creative Writing Binary, Jessica O'Leary
Honors College Theses

For instance, I had trouble believing that my creative writing professor studied pre-med in undergrad. I continued my research on this …
