University of Veracruz Partnership
In 2018, facilitated by past program director of dance Professor Nick Johnson, the Wichita State University (WSU) dance program took students for an exchange of performance and classes to the University
of Veracruza (UV), Xalapa, Veracruz Mexico. At that time, School of Performing Arts (SPA) Director, Cheyla Clawson, was a faculty member on the tour and was incredibly impressed
with the culture and community of the arts at UV. Seeing the deep impact to WSU students on the trip, the potential of a future partnership was born.
