THTR 1049
Advanced Production Lab: Stage Manager Prep · 1 instructor on record · 7 sections
That is the class itself, averaged across everyone who taught it. Who taught it, and how each of them scored, is the board below — that is what a student picking a section is actually choosing between.
Boston College's own “intellectually challenging” question for this class only — students answer it positively about courses that stretched them, so it measures intellectual challenge and NOT grading, workload or quality. Almost every BC class scores high on it, which is why it is shown as a rank rather than a score.
Boston College reports workload for this class only as one of five bands, not as a number of hours, and it does not publish what the bands mean — so this site will not translate it into hours. Higher means more work, which is not the same as worse.
This is the Prep Lab portion of the Stage Manager Lab. You must also register for THTR 1029, the Run Lab portion. Once students gain experience as an assistant stage manager (at least twice, except for special circumstances), they may advance to the Stage Management lab. The stage manager works alongside the director on a production and is in charge of organizing rehearsals, communicating with the production team, and running performances. Stage managers plan each rehearsal with the director, create rehearsal schedules, keep track of blocking, costume and prop needs, and distribute rehearsal reports to theatre staff and designers. This lab represents a graded credit for your preparation for and participation in regular rehearsals and production meetings, including collaborating with professional designers, staff, and students. Stage managers are assigned at the end of the previous academic school year to stage manage one of the six Theatre Department productions. This lab requires department permission and significant production experience. Stage managers at BC work alongside students and professionals alike and are considered leaders within the department.

The line
All 13 items · means across 7 recordsBar length is the rank against every comparable record we hold, not the raw score: BC's questions all have a median around 4.5, so a raw-scale bar would be nearly full on every row and would tell you nothing. Every bar is one ink colour — nothing here is graded green or red. The hatched bars are not ratings at all: a higher number on either describes a different course, not a better one.

How to read this boardInstructors are ranked on their record in this class only, never on their average across everything they teach. Scores are out of 100 — Boston College's 1–5 agreement scale, ×20, the way these numbers were printed for years. Workload is BC's own five-band figure, not a number of hours, and is shown as a rank. A dash means the question was not reported, and is never a zero.
