Terpsichore is the student club for any and all kinds of dance. Please visit the club's website.

Terpsichore puts on a show once a term. Their most recent show, "Ascension," took place November 2 & 3rd at 7pm in the Auxiliary Gym. There were 14 pieces and 62 dancers in the show. Currently everyone who auditions to be in the show gets a part in at least one dance. Anyone can apply to be a choreographer, as long as they have participated in at least one of Terpsichore's shows in the past.

Besides producing 3 shows a year, Terpsichore also strives to bring at least one residency to campus every year, giving students an opportunity to experience a new style of movement and/or choreography. The previous two years' residencies have been with David Dorfman.

Finally, Terpsichore annually attends the American College Dance Festival (ACDF), which takes place near or during Spring Break. Typically 10 dancers are taken and 2 pieces are selected to be performed. Last year, a piece by then Junior Megan Hall was selected to be performed in the final gala, a huge honor indeed. This year Terpsichore is attending ACDF in Madison, WI.
