ProBuilder is a self-service online concert program creator that the Center for Music uses to generate concert programs. The School of Music, Theatre, and Dance requires the utilization of ProBuilder for all recitals held in the Whalen Center for Music.  Programs from ProBuilder are now made available to audiences in 2 ways: electronically in a device-friendly format, and printed for audience members without devices.  If you wish to have additional paper copies for your files, you may send the pdf to the print shop in a separate order at your own cost.  

Visit the sections below for instructions on how to utilize the software.
