While preparing for Pitt Dance Ensemble’s spring concert, “Awakening,” junior microbiology and gender sexuality and women's studies major Emma Zawacki choreographed one of the most challenging tap dances she has ever performed.

In an email sent this summer, a School of Education professor said Pitt may no longer offer dance courses after the 2021-22 academic year. As a result, the dance minor might be terminated, leading to concerns from students who are committed to the program.
