This course consists of eight online modules that the student can complete independently. An instructor will meet virtually with the students weekly to review each module topic and answer questions. Expect to spend study time reviewing each module topic outside of the review class. A student who completes all the modules, works through the quizzes, and studies the resource materials independently should be able to pass both the written and oral state exam successfully.

Every fall semester Theta holds our philanthropy event, Kats & Bats. Kats & Bats is a softball tournament in which teams of 10 participate in friendly games of softball. Each player donates $5.00 towards our philanthropy. 75% of our proceeds go towards CASA, more specifically the Connecticut location. CASA stands for Court Appointed Special Advocate, which is an organization that matches children from the foster care and juvenile system with a representative to serve as their support system. The other 25% of our proceeds will go towards the Theta Foundation. The Theta Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing funding for leadership and educational opportunities to members of Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. We look forward to our event!!

Join Curator of Education, Matthew Marshall for a walk-through of the exhibition Encounters with the Collection: Exploring America at 250. The exhibition draws on the museum's holdings of American art to think broadly about how the very word "American" can be defined: as an identity, a place, and an idea. Highlights include landscapes and cityscapes by Ansel Adams, Martin Johnson Heade, and Richard Misrach; representations of President Abraham Lincoln across different media; and a salon-style wall of portraits from the 18th century to the present. Also featured are recent additions to the collection by Valerie Hegarty, Jeffrey Gibson, and Sarah Sense. This presentation of key works from the Benton's collection will encourage dialogue about American art, culture, and identity. Visitors are encouraged to think about the ideas and ideals that shaped America at its founding while also exploring how they resonate in America today and for the future. FREE
