allowed the former UArts students to continue their MFA summer program in Montpellier , France , which was already underway when UArts announced its closure .
Bennington College , known for its rich history in dance , will integrate the new BFA program under the leadership of Donna Faye Burchfield , former Dean of Dance at UArts . The new program will operate separately from Bennington ’ s existing BA dance program , with the BFA focusing on conservatory training , integrating practices and theory with critical thinking . The existing BA program will maintain its emphasis on individual creativity and the creation of new work .
“ Bennington has always been centered around creativity and the arts ,” says Laura Walker , President of Bennington College . “ Dance has been a vibrant part of our curriculum since we were founded when Martha Graham and Martha Hill taught here . From the first phone call I had with Donna Faye , I knew we had to respond swiftly so that this extraordinary program can continue and the students will have a home .
Our own dance faculty are enthusiastic about welcoming and collaborating with these students and faculty .” Burchfield adds : “ Bennington has been a true lifesaver . The acrobatic speed with which Laura Walker , her team , and the Bennington dance faculty responded has been astounding . I am relieved and thrilled to see our students and faculty on the Bennington campus .”
