In 1925 dancing of the aesthetic type was included in the curricu- lum as an elective, but was poorly attended because people found they disliked dancing at 1:40 p. m.

This was "an interpretation in dance form of the movement and spirit characteristic of some of the most important epochs in the his- tory of art."
