Actors Union petition to save the Creative Industries Course
Charles Sturt University is phasing out several key disciplines within the Bachelor of Creative Industries course. Acting, Production, Animation, Design and other specialisations have a high probability of not appearing in the new course outline (Bachelor of Communications, 2022). This will leave lecturers redundant and current students within the current Creative Industries course heavily disadvantaged, both within the duration of their study and post-graduation. In addition, future students from Regional NSW who aspire to make a career in the Creative Arts will no longer have the opportunity to pursue this ambition regionally.
Wagga Wagga has always had a healthy and vibrant performance/production atmosphere and to have this starting point for young minds taken away would not only damage that atmosphere, but possibly deter more people in the future from taking that leap.
Actors Union, Charles Sturt Acting Alumni, the Community of Wagga Wagga and Box'd Theatre Ensemble have collaboratively worked together in order to create and share this petition. Please sign this petition to show that the Creative Arts in Regional Areas deserves to be taught and kept alive.

A Creative Arts degree is significantly cheaper than a Communications degree. This means that students studying in the future Communications & Media course will most likely be paying double in fees. Do you believe that this is a disadvantage to future students?
