US Colleges and Universities |
Our goal for 2008-09 is provide information on each of the colleges and universities listed below. We appreciate any information in expanding our directory. Please send questions and information to Liz Gallego, The Directory is divided into Curricular and Extra Curricular programs. Curricular programs are programs that offer college credit usually through cultural studies, kinesiology or dance departments. Extra-curricular are programs that offer no college credit. These programs usually have a college sponsor who supervises and facilitates student activities but does not provide instruction. Most programs are student based. These programs are generally not permitted in the dance studios.

Unfortunately the folklorico group has
been disbanded. This happened after students were unable to find a sponsor
and find a place practice through
our university. |
