In partnership with Los Angeles City College (LACC) students will have access to college-level courses. Working cooperatively, students will create, produce, publish and perform first-rate production projects in a variety of media formats. Juniors ands seniors will have opportunities to participate in work study/internship experiences in a variety of career fields.
