Wheaton Swing Club

Wheaton Swing Club Welcome to the official page of the Wheaton College Swing Club! The group meets on Tuesday evenings in Coray Alumni Gym from 7:30-10pm!

Lesson: 7:30-8
Open dance: 8-10

On the cutting edge of the dance reform movement on campus, Wheaton College Swing Club was formed a year and a half before all-campus dances were allowed, and two years before student-led clubs were allowed to host dances. It started after a student wrote a letter asking administration why a “swing dance club” would not be allowed on campus. Not long after, the stu

dent became vice president of the newly formed and first ever dance club, Wheaton College Swing Club. Club attendance skyrocketed and although all club activity was transparent to administration, the feeling of being an ‘underground movement’ prevailed among club members. A community was built around the East Coast Swing Dance scene, utilizing the colors of red, black, and white to enhance the unique culture that flourished late on Tuesday nights in Coray Gymnasium. Students on the cabinet not only organize club events and finances but also teach one lesson every week, both for beginners and advanced, and set the vision for the culture and community Swing Club has fostered. We look forward to seeing you there!!!
