Engaging Campus Communities Through Dance

Some examples of available campus programming includes events that would be suitable for:
- An Art of Peace program for Gandhi's birthday around October 2nd annually.
- Connecting religious studies programs with Bharata Natyam, a dance form that originated in the temples of South India.
- Celebrating Asian Pacific Islander Heritage Month in May annually.
- Multi-Cultural Center programming.
- Performing Arts Centers on Campus programming.
- Dance department and Ethnomusicology department programming.
