It also exists so that any student may have access to a wide variety of theatrical opportunities, from being onstage to working behind the scenes or even attending shows.

  • STEAM-EC

    We are going to host several personal events - field trips and community service projects - where we will learn about the world we live in and apply knowledge we have gained from our education in the real world. We will promote Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) and stress the fact that everything is connected and each subjected is almost never isolated. We believe in a future where Etown students will be the leaders in their future careers because of the versatile application they will gain. We wish that our members can make connections and gather ideas that incorporate as many components of STEAM and more. With our personal events, not only would we be giving back to the community, but we would be educating our members so they can realize how they can provide service themselves.
