I’m going to be a Junior musical theatre major and dance minor this coming fall. I knew that dancing would be a very important aspect of my education and I wanted to get the most intense and well rounded training that I possibly could. The dance program and faculty here at BSU are simply incredible and they continually push me everyday. I wanted a place where I could focus on my skill in the classroom, and at the same time be able to apply my training to a production on the stage. I’m able to do that here. Ball State is consistently putting on very large, dance-heavy productions. The staff in our dance department, along side our theatre department, are sincerely interested in each student as an individual and will take time out of class to help a student grow and set personal goals. I have seen so much growth in myself and in my fellow classmates.
