Borman said her decision to tack
le two majors was a practical one.
“My ultimate goal is to be an inde
pendent film producer,” Borman
said. “And since they don’t have a
film school here, the best way for
me to leam how to direct and coach
actors and design a set and work a
camera has been to double major in
journalism and theater.”
But Borman was not always com
mitted to two majors. She said she
was bitten by the theater bug after
attending an acting class early in her
academic career. An eight-week
study abroad program led her to
London, where she saw more than
40 plays and solidified her passion
for theater.
Theater arts department head Jef
frey Mason said he has been contin
ually impressed by Borman’s per
sonal devotion to her art.
“Windy chooses artistic efforts that
reflect her values and beliefs,” Mason
said. “Not
everyone can
do that. Nothing
is a casual exer
cise for her.”

Bernstein was
n’t short of
complimentary Borman
adjectives to
describe Bor
man, tossing out phrases such as
“hard working,” “devoted,” “go-get
ter,” “risk-taker” and “thorough.”
But it was Borman’s “range of in
quiry” that impressed Parsons
Bemstein the most.
“She has dipped her toe in just
about everything and is so receptive
to new opportunities to express her
self,” the director said. “I think she’ll
bring a high caliber of performance
to whatever she chooses to do.”
For now, Borman is choosing the
East Coast. After graduation, Bor
man will be moving to New York
City to teach elementary school in
the Bronx with Teach for America.

Dance
continued from page 13
year’s University of Oregon Reper
tory Dance Theatre, performed in
several concerts, choreographed for
the student concert and was also
involved in the technical aspects of
the theater.
Boulton began dancing at the age
of 14, after an injury prevented her
from participating in gymnastics.
“I was looking for something to
do with myself,” she said.
But what started as a diversion
eventually grew into a hobby and a
lifelong passion. Boulton said asso
ciate professor Sherrie Barr’s dance
teaching course inspired her to ma
jor in dance.
And now, she said, “My life
dream is to have my own dance
studio and teach and perform.”
The dance department, in the
School of Music, prepares its stu
dents to achieve goals such as
these with classes focusing on all
aspects of the dance world’s prism
— artistic, physical and academ
ic. Majors and minors are re
quired to audition for level place
ment each year, advance in
technique and earn passing
grades in several lecture-format
courses. The major requirements
add up to 74 required credits with
24 elective credits.
Boulton said for her, the most
challenging aspect of the major was
the time factor. She worked 30 to
40 hours each week in addition to
rehearsing for concerts.
“It takes a lot of time, especial
ly because I wanted to perform a
lot and really be a part of things,”
she said.
Boulton added that her future
plans include participating in a stu
dent-produced summer dance con
cert on campus. After that, she will
move to Portland and pursue her
performing career.
She said the dance depart
ment’s personalized atmosphere
made her experience at the Uni
versity special.
“I like the size and that everyone
knows who I am, and all my profes
sors know me,” she said. “I’m not
just a name.”
In addition to the eight under
graduate dqnce majors, three grad
uate students and seven dance mi
nors will also complete their dance
studies on Saturday.
