Abstract
The plan of a. Symposium in Modern Dance for colleges and universities was inaugurated by Barnard College in the spring of 1932. Since that time many symposia. have been organized for college and university groups and high school groups in all parts of the country. These symposia have differed as to working plan but have bee.n identical as to fundamental purpose; all of them have been co-operative rather than competitive. Groups have met to dance together, to pre-sent different approaches to techniques and composition, and to discuss the modern dance as a vital movement in contemporary art and education.The 1935 Dance Symposium at Bennington College has been planned as part of this whole scheme.
