Dear ##First Name##,

Wishing everyone well as we move towards the end of 2015, which for many of us is a busy time socially and professionally!

First off, I am delighted to announce that we have recently appointed Dr. Sally Ann Ness who will join us in fall 2016. Dr. Ness comes from the Department of Anthropology at the University of California-Riverside and has authored many influential publications in dance studies.

I would also like to spread the word about our MA in Dance, which we re-launched this year as a one-year intensive for students interested in fast-tracking to a PhD program or for those keen to build on their undergraduate training through advanced professional development. Please take a moment to watch our short promotional trailer for the MA in Dance.

Finally, I would like to introduce our new President of the Temple Dance Alumni Working Group, Victoria McGuigan. Victoria graduated from the department with a BFA and M.Ed. in Dance, and in 1996 developed the dance program at the Temple University Music Preparatory Division.

At present, we are looking for additional members to join the Alumni Working Group. We feel that the rewards of joining this committee are to:
  • Network with former and recent Temple graduates within the dance field;
  • Choreograph a shared vision and mission in collaboration with the department;
  • Honor a legacy that recognizes the high quality training that Temple has fostered;
  • Promote the work of Temple Dance to future students and dance audiences;
  • Have fun with like-minded movers and shakers.
Please contact me if you would be interested in more information about this: sherril.dodds@temple.edu

Warm wishes,
Sherril Dodds
Chair and Professor of the Dance Department
