Whether it is dancing for the Tango Club or at the Occupation Dance, students use different types of dancing to express their feelings or have fun. Another form of expression, acting can also provide students with a hobby that allows them to become another character or just let loose.

Take the time to take in the beautiful colors around you and take in the cool, crisp autumn breeze.
