Butler Cultural
Requirement Overview
Butler University has a rich set of cultural activities in the
form of artistic performances, seminars and public lectures that
collectively comprise one of our most remarkable educational
resources. The aim of the Butler Cultural Requirement is
to engage students in these most valuable and exciting learning
opportunities, and to encourage students to develop habits of
participation in artistic and cultural events that will lead to
lifelong engagement with the creative arts and public intellectual
life.
Beginning with students entering in fall 2010, all Butler
students must attend eight or more BCR events as part of their
graduation requirements. Transfer students must complete at least
one BCR credit for each semester enrolled at Butler
University.

How to Receive BCR Credit
At each event, students should look for the BCR student staff
wearing the vest with the BCR symbol. In order to receive
BCR credit for attending the event, students must have their ID
card scanned by the BCR
representative prior to the start of
the event and within 15 minutes of
the event's
ending. Credit will only be
given for attending the entire event. Each student may only
scan their own ID card.
