Hello! I'm looking at going back to school soon, and, after running across mention that there were programs for nontraditional students at some women's colleges, have begun to consider attending one of them if I can. I think I'd be far less distracted and far more likely to speak up in class in a women-only environment. (I'm pretty shy... my

I'm not a dance major or minor anymore (the minor is ridiculous, you don't need to take a single technique course for it), but I do take a dance class from time to time. I think that we have an amazing program, if you want to just take classes, I wouldn't go here for a dance major though, that is better done elsewhere. I've only taken ballet and jazz, we offer every level from beginner to advanced in tap, ballet, jazz and modern, sometimes there's a random class thrown in for a semester. I find that the professors are nice, and the class is never any bigger then 12 students so everyone can still get individual attention. If you want to go more towards the performing aspect, we have a company for each style of dance that you try out for in the beginning of fall semester and then perform at the end of each semester. We also have shows that are put on about every month or two if you're into acting/singing.

Another thing I forgot to mention, is if there is a class or minor/major you want to pursue, that Cedar Crest doesn't offer, we have a bridge program with some of the neighboring colleges where you can take classes there and still get the credit. (Muhlenburg College is less than a mile away) I think there's about 4 or 5 colleges in the area that you can take classes from if needed, and I'm sure there would be a way to arrange transportation to those colleges. It's kinda like the program Smith and Mount Holyoke and the rest of the seven sisters have.
