This research examined the reasons why theatre majors at Muhlenberg College seem to be more socially exclusive in comparison with other academic disciplines at the institution. The research first identified whether or not theatre majors were in fact socially exclusive, and from there explored the inner workings of friendship networks on campus. Theatre majors were questioned using surveys and interviews in order to find out why they seek a social life solely within the department, only seek friends outside of the department, or have friends from both inside and outside the curriculum. Non-theatre majors were also questioned on their individual feelings on Muhlenberg’s theatre department, and asked about their personal social habits. The results of my data collection suggest that the definition of social exclusivity varies between theatre and non-theatre majors, and that common interests are the main factors that determine friendship networks.
