Description:
J. Kevin Doolen, chair of the Department of Theatre, believes that "theater gets to the core of what it means to be human. That's the point of theater. It is not mere entertainment." Doolen, who joined the University at Albany in the summer of 2003 from Texas A University, said theater is a way in which students "can experience important social concerns, shed light into the human spirit, use their knowledge of literature, and combine these to align perfectly with the arts and psychology." With this philosophy in mind, Doolen sees theatre as being truly "the" liberal art. "There is nothing at this University that a student could take that is not applicable to theater," he said.
