A student on probation may not participate in auditioned theatre roles,

have grade point requirements. It is strongly advised that students
on probation terminate any off-campus employment. Many beginning college
students do not realize how much time and effort a rigorous academic
program demands; therefore, College of the Ozarks strongly encourages
its students not to accept off-campus employment until they have proven
that such employment will not jeopardize their academic program performance.
