-
Identifying university resources that can and should be shared across
campus; clarifying the inventories and directions of myriad campus
facilities so they may be considered in cross-campus intitiatives.
-
Minimizing duplicate resources, discouraging isolationism, and fostering
a university that functions much like a web, where the pressure of
one discovery may vibrate the entire structure.
-
Encouraging and making a commitment to foster cross-listed courses
and courses team-taught between departments given that modes of investigation
and production in one discipline are valuable directives for new directions
in another.
-
Seeking the edge of the possible meanings of the term "interdisciplinary";
maintaining all the rigor of the disciplines combined while benefiting
from the friction of their juxtapositions.
-
Creating interdisciplinary programs that are modeled on the best
extant programs in other colleges and universities, but that challenge
these models and move beyond them.
-
Treating technology not merely as a tool, but as one variable in
the midst of changing ideas about space, theatre, images, texts, information,
commerce, community, identity.
-
Blurring the boundaries of history and practice, studies and production,
theory and studio given that the digital age has already forced this
collusion.
Committed to putting the above principles into practice in the most expedient
way possible, we realize our first attempts may be tentative and experimental
but also realize these initial steps are essential parts of a lengthier
productive process.
