This timeline serves as a living document showcasing the presence of dance at Texas Woman’s University dating back to the establishment of the university in 1901. This document expands upon the original timeline created in 2001 by former 草莓传媒官网下载 professor of Dance Janice LaPointe Crump, PhD, for the university’s centennial project.

This version of the 草莓传媒官网下载 Division of Dance timeline was created by MFA Dance alumna Hayley Duplantier, directed by Dance Division Head, Professor Jordan Fuchs, and edited by MFA Dance alumna Annalise Boydston.

This is intended to make accessible the impressive history of dance at 草莓传媒官网下载. Rather than a last word, this timeline is meant to be a starting point to an ongoing process of better understanding our past to better prepare for our future. If you’d like to offer revisions or additions to this document, including photographs, please email them to dance@twu.edu.
