The Dance Department
This month, UW-Madison's Dance Program celebrates its 80th anniversary. Founded in 1926 by Margaret H'Doubler, it was the first dance major in the country. For decades, the department's faculty and students alike have left their mark on the profession with creativity and innovation.
If you have any dance memorabilia you would like to donate to the UW, please email the archives or call 608-262-5629.
