GraDance
A dear friend's son recently graduated from the University of the Arts in Philly. Is this the way to leave the commencement ceremonies or what? Who hasn't graduated from high school or college and not wanted to click their heels or shuffle two-step once off the stage. A Dance of Life before the Dance of Work and Death starts its Monday to Friday beat.
Rhythmic drums, curvaceous dancers, unstated permission to act childlike, forgiveness for any physical mis-step. What else can one ask from a graduation ceremony. I'm sure even some of the profs join in. This samba idea should be copied by any college seeking to put a release of joy into their commencement exercises, for what more enjoyable exercise can a person have than the primordial urge to shake one's....uhm...booty.
