2024 DEPARTMENT CHAIR NETWORK CONVENING - September 27 & 28

WHY? To gather chairs of dance departments together in community for discussion, solidarity, and resourcing.  In alignment with DSA organizational values, DSA’s Department Chair Network is committed to making dance departments places of inclusion, care, and possibility through equitable employment practices, critical curriculum building, faculty and student support, a commitment to wellness through and beyond the body, navigating and/or initiating institutional change, and securing dance’s longevity within higher education.

FULL SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

JOIN DSA

DSA is a member-led organization.  Please join DSA (with rates beginning at $30/year) to submit to and present at conferences, and to join or start a Working Group.  You do not need to be a DSA member to submit to any of our publications.  Run for the Board or join a Standing Commitee (membership required).  There are many important ways for your voices to be heard and for you to influence the direction of the organization.  But we are a small nonprofit with one employee, and your member-led leadership is invaluable.
