Our mission is to create and maintain an environment that promotes respect for and appreciation of scholarship, freedom, human diversity and the cultural mosaic of the city of San Francisco and the Bay Area.
To promote excellence in instruction and intellectual accomplishment; to provide broadly accessible higher education for residents of the region and state, as well as the nation and world.
We aim to provide our students with the analytical, creative, and technical skills necessary to investigate, compose or choreograph, perform, and teach music or dance in a setting where traditional and innovative approaches are combined to meet the needs of our diverse urban community.
