Inquiring Minds will present a program on October 21 about How Theatre Supports Wellness with Ferrum College senior Hannah Dix.
Hannah, who will graduate in November 2026, will discuss her research on how a bachelor’s degree in theatre arts promotes student wellness.
Inquiring Minds offers lively, informal presentations and activities on various interesting topics for the entire community. Stanley Library at Ferrum College presents the series on most Wednesdays during the academic year, in the LEaP Studio on the library’s main floor during the campus’s community hour from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
All are welcome to attend for free.
The photos show Hannah in recent Blue Ridge Dinner Theatre performances on campus. In the top photo, she played a mother squirrel who performs in a variety show with her child squirrels within the musical Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas. Besides performing, she served as prop master for a musical and has often assisted in the box office as well as working with lights and a variety of other backstage tasks. She also performs with the college choir. On campus she has been employed by Stanley Library, the counseling center, and the athletics program. She has been active in several Ferrum College student organizations.
