Dances are the heart of Ballroom Dance Club. Here are the details of each dance event and other related activities. Our dances are almost always preceded by a beginning and intermediate lesson on the thematic dance so everyone can take part in the fun.
Lessons and the following dance each cost $3. You can attend both for only $5. Members attend lessons and dances for free, unless otherwise noted. Non-BDC events are not covered by membership, so everyone must pay the cover charge.
Please remember that lessons begin promptly at the time stated. To avoid interruptions, we will be closing the doors from fifteen minutes after the lesson begins until the dance itself begins.
Most dance events are held in either Acker 204 or Yolo 213.
You may find this campus map, as well as these maps of Acker Gym and Yolo Hall useful for locating these rooms.
It is with great regret that I inform you guys that the Ballroom Dance Club Dances are going to be cancelled after the first dance.
Unfortunately The schools new policy regarding club use of school facilities has made it financially impossible for us to continue to function. They are going to charge us more than we can afford to use the room we need. In light of that we have had to cancel the rest of our dances after this coming dance.
I am saddened by this turn of events. Hopefully something can happen. I will soon have a petition that students can sign and info for non-students who wish to support us.
I just found out this info in class today from Dr. Smiley. I'll admit it was hard to hold back the tears while hearing what was happening to the club I have give a year and a half of my life to.
I am sorry I have to bring you this news.

Please note these are not BDC dances, so everyone attending must pay any required cover charge.
