At my last university, majors were required to do 4-6 credits of
practicum. Credits varied by major (some majors had higher core course
loads than others -- they got a break on practicum). Within each
semester, the practicum students were divided among the various crews
for each production (3 productions per semester.) I don't remember
specific hour requirements for the class, sorry.
