Not many places on campus provide services
such learning how to sign language, play the gui
tar or get the basics of auto mechanics.
Dr. Frank Ashley, ballroom dance instructor
and associate dean of undergraduate studies, said
both men and women join his classes with a SO
SO ratio.
“Guys take the class because it helps with their
coordination, and I think their girlfriends com
plain they can’t dance,” Ashley said."I tell the guys
that I know they have been bribed or forced by
their girlfriends to come, but I have not had one
complaint from a guy. If guys
teach the class, I find that other
guys are less intimidated.”
Capeheart said the classes are
the best launching pads into
that field.
“We offer English as a second
language. We can not make a per
son fluent but we can put them
on the track,” he said. “The in
structors are checked to see if
they can teach. We don’t want
people to come and take a class
and not learn a thing.”
Capeheart said the favorite classes tend to gen
erally be the language and dancing classes.
Ashley said his enjoyment for dancing and his
inspiration for teaching began when he pushed
out into the crowd.
“When I was in college I took a dance class,”
Ashley said. “The instructor needed a volunteer
and since I was the smallest guy there I got pushed
out. From then on I became her helper and I took
more dance classes. I am called Dr. Dance.
“Dance is a good exercise,” he said. “Everyone
leaves a little sweaty, so it is a pretty good workout.”
Ashley said he has had many people enroll in his
classes beside students.
“I have had the provost come in, the associate
provost, and the dean of faculty and heads of de
partment,” he said. “Enrollment also increases
during the spring semester because there are more
dances and more marriages. Everyone in Texas
knows how to country-western dance but they do
not realize how similar the two are and how useful
it can be.”
Rachel Walker, a junior wildlife and fishery sci-
you can take a class
and you don’t have to
wony about a grade.”
