I think it would be healthy for everyone to stop accepting the stigma that productions like the Struble Projects, independent projects, and certain boards slots seem to carry. We should be excited that our peers get to make the art that they want to make instead of passing judgement on its value based on which organization they are associated with. Additionally, special events are a great forum for boards to experiment away from their main season while giving the artistic minds that desire a voice some ground to show their stuff; why not publicize these special event slots more? Some great things on campus have been the result of special events (look at TSWA, Sit and Stand Up, and Festival of Devised Works) and some satellite groups have been the result of special projects held by boards (the Purple Crayon Players originated as an L&M project for example). Instead of giving every bit of attention to the 2 or 3 main stage shows that each board puts up, let's give some focus to the awesome events that pop up elsewhere.
