Student involvement
Across the college, our students are given a range of opportunities to expand their creativity and stretch their imaginations beyond the classroom. From student organizations and student-run galleries to ensemble performances and competitive internships, Huskers in the Hixon-Lied College for Fine and Performing Arts are getting the hands-on experiences they need to grow and succeed in the artistic careers.
