HISTORY AND ACCREDITATION The Music Education program at UWSP has a proud tradition beginning in 1959 when it became the first program in the Wisconsin State College System to offer the Bachelor of Music Education degree. As the arts programs grew at UWSP, the Noel Fine Arts Center was built in the early 1970’s with the new facilities constructed in the early 2000’s. Today, the College of Fine Arts enrolls over 230 majors, including subjects in art, theatre, music, and dance, and ranks best in state, and overall in the top 7% nationally. The College of Fine Arts and Communication at UW-Stevens Point is accredited by all four professional associations: National Association of Schools of Art and Design, National Association of Schools of Dance, National Association of Schools of Music and National Association of Schools of Theatre.
