Many have been asking on other threads where Carolyn Roderick is teaching now. As a new resident of Colorado, I've been told that she is on faculty at CSU in Fort Collins. I checked their website and confirmed this.

 

I don't know if she joined the faculty last year or this one. But, I wonder if her presence will result in some positive changes to the ballet curriculum. Anyone have any information about this program? From their website, it appears that they do offer a BFA in Dance, with a ballet concentration.

Carol Roderick is now working full-time in a lovely school in Ashiya, Japan. I believe she is still planning to work in Ft. Collins when she is in the US however, for the time being that may only be on occasion.

 

I am searching for the card. When I find it I will post the name of the school and a link to the website. It is an interesting school.

Thank you for the update, VRS! Her picture and bio are on the CSU website, so maybe she will be a guest teacher or be teaching some portion of the school year.

Has anyone attended this school who could comment on the ballet program?

My daughter auditioned there and it really isn't a ballet program. A career after graduation would be unlikely judging from the student demonstration we saw.

Thank you for sharing. We don't know anyone with any experience there at all, dance or otherwise.
