Art (dance) supplement?

Colleges & Universities A-Z Duke University

<p>I am thinking about submitting an art supplement for Duke RD, and I have a few quick questions. </p>

<ol>
<li><p>Is any style of dance appropriate for the supplement? The Duke website doesn't really specify. Plus, I'm guessing that the supplements are evaluated by experienced dance instructors at the university. The thing is, I breakdance (I consider myself to be pretty proficient), and I'm not sure if it'll be received positively because I bet the evaluators are looking for or more experienced with evaluating classical styles. Should I go for it and see what happens? </p></li>
<li><p>The website says to submit a 10-15 minute DVD. But does it HAVE to be over 10 minutes? I don't think I have enough moves to fill up an entire 10 minute segment. Hell, I don't think any breakdancer has an arsenal large enough to take up 10 minutes without repeating any moves/combos. </p></li>
</ol>

<p>Thanks in advance and sorry if these were dumb questions :D</p>

<p>heyy I did a dance supplement too! I just mailed it to Duke a couple days ago. I am more what i guess you would consider a classical dancer (ballet jazz modern). I think you should definitely do a breakdancing DVD. It sounds corny but it doesn’t matter what you are doing, any dance instructor can tell if you have personality and charisma and that’s what matters.</p>

<p>I would try to get to 10 minutes, but if you can’t, I bet it won’t hurt you. Just by submitting it, you are showing your passion and dedication and that can in no way be bad.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
