Doyle has portrayed many characters throughout his career in theater such as troubled individuals, naive academics and women. BRIAN FRANCOM photo Theater professor finds passion through teaching By MACKENZIE LOVE staff writer In theater things are always changing. New shows continue to be created and the dream of becoming a star on Broadway is the ultimate goal. It's bright, it's new, there's no business like show business. That is why Kevin Doyle, professor in the theatre arts department, enjoys what he does. "That's what I like about theater," Doyle said. "There's always another new project." Doyle holds a bachelors degree in theater from St. Louis University and a Master of Fine Arts in acting and directing from University of Missouri. But that's not what Doyle thought he would pursue for his degrees or career. Doyle went to college for business but took theater classes for fun and socializing. During the summer, he performed in shows to raise money for a local children's hospital which he enjoyed by benefiting from performing while helping in a community cause. While working on his undergraduate degree, Doyle worked for a prestigious printing company. The company offered him a full-time job during school and a job after he graduated, but Doyle wondered if printing and business was something he wanted to do for the rest of his life. Doyle began to take more theater classes and auditioned for a scholarship where the qualification for receiving the scholarship was to become a theater major. Hoping he could get his business degree in a year without becoming a theater major, Doyle took theater classes to hold the scholarship. That's when Doyle found himself looking into theater seriously for the first time. One of Doyle's professors encouraged him and demonstrated the excitement of theater and teaching. "He just really became a mentor and I quickly thought, 'Well, I really want to do •I See PERFORM, page 15 Skype: Students reaching out [I continuedfrompage 13 ^ apisino Suunod S.JI uaqM USAS jamod Surddois a|q( noX A\OA\ \\\/A saijeaq osrp Suizcmc aqj apis jaqjo sqj UMop pasds puc sqiu;p qSnoj paau noX SuueaS aqi sjajyo qoiqM 'uren -3A(jp pasds-frz ApcA.nJX/ouBiuiqs Suiyiqs-jjomb sqi 3AO| H,no\ spu noX sjsqM J3)itiiu ou |OJIUOD [BIO) so) >goj uoisusdsns jsuuidg qsn[d E pire SUJCJJ mnu -iiun|u-500Z, 3uiipucq-i33MS c sjrcoq oog iiudtf jo qiuoui am JOJ sdn-auni lio %OL anaiaoai siuapms nsn 9IC 60£ "1* AJ8|9A3 8SMUnS-8H!0 6 8piy iiimop apisdn PIJOM JIIOA ujni BUSINESS R U S S I A N CLASS MEMBERS gather around a computer and speak with people in Ukraine.

He said they also discuss things like what students do in their free time, university student life and what monuments and memorials are in Mariupol, all while staring at a flat screen transmitting the image and sound thousands and thousands of miles away. "At first we introduce ourselves, and then it's our goal to find out more about controversial things, to get straight answers," Hall said. Koybaeva said she encourages her students to ask direct questions to better understand and learn from each other. "If (students) never start asking they won't learn anything. I saw a lot of misunderstandings (while working in Washington) because (politicians and business professionals) were not asking questions ... asking direct questions immediately builds trust." Braden Ripple, junior in mathematics, said by participating in the teleconferences he realizes and appreciates the opportunities he has as an American citizen. "We asked them if they want to open a bank account online how to do that - they can't," he said. "Any other online money managment or trading is hands off for most people ... it boggles my mind." The USU students in the class range from social work to pre-dental to biochemistry, but said they enjoy the opportunity to practice their Russian language skills. "There is no better substitute than to speak with a native," Christensen said. "My language has progressed a lot... the camera Q-and-A sessions help us better understand the language." Koybaeva said she has been very impressed with her students' Russian. She said because they have lived in Russia for an extended period of time they speak and understand the language better than almost anyone in America. "I visited Georgetown, and they don't have students like this," she said. "(The USU students) speak exceptionally good Russian. Practically no one in the United States speaks as well as they do. It's just miraculous that we have this right here in Cache Valley." -karlie, brand@aggiemail. usu, edu |
