Faculty Pursuits: Week of Oct. 19, 2026

Cross-department collaboration in action! Heidelberg Theatre and Admissions teamed up for high-impact recruitment over fall break. Karla Kash (Theatre) and Alexa Lowery (Admissions, Theatre) attended the nationwide Pittsburgh Unified Auditions alongside 84 other institutions.

Here is a look at the numbers:

• Live Auditions: 300+ students seen
• 130 prospective leads
• Virtual Auditions: 250+ students remaining
• 100+ prospective leads

Their outreach is already paying off. After identifying a prospective student interested in joining Heidelberg's track team, Karla and Lex looped in Head Track Coach Jason Hudson. Following a successful Zoom connection, the student is now planning an official campus visit!
