<p>John Meehan, former director of ABTII will be joining the faculty at Vassar next year to head the Vassar Repetory Dance Theater. Jean Czula, a former ballet dancer heads the dance department and teaches a challenging ballet class. There is no Dance Major at Vassar which is a plus if you want to perform but Major in something else, and you can take ballet for credit. The dance facilities including studios and a theater were renovated a few years ago and are beautiful.</p>
