Internationalism on Campus: The Font, November 1936

This article is one of the earliest international celebrations at Fontbonne. The “Dances of Nations” that the article describes was only part of a larger event celebrating student Athletes. The event, in which dances were performed that represented different nations, including Russia, the United States, Holland, Ireland, Sweden, Germany, and Scotland is fairly limited in geography: most of the nations that are represented are European, and all of them subscribe in some fashion, to a western culture. In addition, the students who conducted the dance groups seem to be domestic students themselves, given their primarily English first/ last names.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/internationalism/1004/thumbnail.jp
