Why It's Wild
Dash Three is a required one-quarter course for theatre majors where the student (typically a freshman) will work in the costumes, properties, lighting, set, or another department for a production at the Wirtz Center. Students typically work XX hours per week to fulfill their course requirement. It is also used as a verb to refer to the act of serving as a tech crew member. The theatre speech community uses dash three, both written and spoken in informal social contexts on campus.
