The National Dance Education Organization Board of Directors and Staff welcome you to the NDEO’s 19th Annual National Conference, “Cultivating Equity and Access: Dance Education for All.” Over the next four days, you will have the opportunity to choose from over 200 papers, panels, workshops, and special events that focus on ways that we can celebrate, promote, and stand up for dance education in our schools, communities, and nation. This year marks year three of our Decade of Dance Education initiative, a ten-year campaign to help raise the profile of NDEO and the field, as well as build the funding needed to ensure our financial health and grow our programs and services. This past year NDEO has focused on augmenting infrastructure. From completing long- needed improvements to our office, to developing a solid committee structure, to strengthening programs and building new partnerships, NDEO continues to do what is needed to advance dance education centered in the arts. Be sure to attend the NDEO Town Hall Membership Meeting on Monday November 13th from 4:00 - 5:30 in the Regency Ballroom to learn more about NDEO’s ongoing progress. NDEO gives special thanks to our On-Site Conference Planning Committee, chaired by Tina Curran, for working with the NDEO Staff to ensure a successful and enjoyable conference.This conference would not be possible without the expertise and dedication of the NDEO staff:Vilma Braja (Director of Finance and HR); Melissa Greenblatt (Managing Director); Betsy Loikow (Director of Conference and Events); Tiana Chambers (Director of NSHDA); Shannon Dooling (Special Projects); Jane Bonbright (Director of OPDI); Ed Scheff (Conference Program Book Editor); and Anne Dunkin (DELRdi Coordinator). I also want to thank our incredible interns Shelby Bensinger and Michelle Benson who provided tremendous support to the staff and organization this summer. Be sure to thank these individuals when you see them at conference. We are also grateful to our many volunteers who help make our conference run smoothly. We welcome you to San Antonio, Texas and hope that you enjoy the many cultural, artistic, and entertainment opportunities that the region offers. Susan McGreevy-Nichols Executive Director 6 National Dance Education Organization President’s Welcome November, 2017 Greetings and Welcome to the 19th Annual National Conference, Cultivating Equity and Access: Dance Education for All, here in the culturally rich and vibrant city of San Antonio! This has been both a tremendously successful, but also quite challenging year for all of us at NDEO, our friends, our families, and you! I find it ironic that while this conference was booked several years ago, with changes in legislation at local, state, and national levels, and the weather events that continue to affect our friends here in Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico and everywhere in between, our theme Cultivating Equity and Access is perfectly suited. Throughout the Spring, the Texas legislature passed a few bills that, unfortunately, now prevents access to many, creating inequities. Hurricane Harvey recently swept through the southeast region of the state bringing great devastation to its citizens. This monster storm did not discriminate against those in its pathway. Testimonials in news media and social media outlets indicated that folks did not discriminate who, what, how, when or where amongst the chaos. Instead, without question, without hesitation, provided love, warmth, food, shelter and support of one another. Dance also does not discriminate. It is inherent in each of us. It is how we communicate, whether formally trained or not. And then there is what dance does. It brings joy – whether participating or observing. This emotion, too, does not discriminate and is accessible to all! As I thank you for joining me here in Texas, for putting aside any fears of discrimination or fears of effects of Harvey we may encounter, let’s join hands, move together, and bring joy to this community! Let’s help our dance family here to both connect and re-connect, build and rebuild – showing San Antonio, the state of Texas, and this incredible nation the creative, innovative leaders that dance education has prepared us to be! As leaders, we don’t shy away, we leap forward. Together, this will get us one step closer to equity and access to dance education. Together, dance education for all! Rick Southerland Rick Southerland, President 7 Join the NDEO Decade of Dance Education Membership Matters In 2015, NDEO launched The Decade of Dance Education (2015-2025), a ten-year campaign designed to raise the profile of dance education centered in the arts, while simultaneously ensuring the growth and development of NDEO for years to come. The mission of this campaign is to raise the awareness and funds needed to build and sustain NDEO in our next era of growth, so that we can best support and advance the field. The theme of the Decade of Dance Education is It All Starts with a Dance Teacher!, which recognizes enormous impact our members have on their

Thanks to Reinhardt (our webmaster) for putting together this article! A domain name is essentially a string of letters that tells someone where to go to find a given website. It is not an actual address in the same way 251 Dundas Street, London, Ontario is, but it is a unique identifier that can be looked up by your computer to determine the actual address. Just as we typically say "the Library" to refer to the London Public Library, Central Branch, http://sflondon.ca is a short, human-friendly way to refer to the Science Fiction London website.
