Dancesport is the direct descendant of the DI's team match team
from this last year. Andrew & co. formed (are forming?) a sports
club for dance. If you look at the bottom of the flyer, it says
"Instruction provided by the competition wing of the Dancing Illini."
IOW, it's us, in a different disguise. Both flyers were almost
certainly posted by the same person yesterday.

No, it isn't.
> Just curious, think we may have competition for the ballroom circles...
The class being offered is a beginner class, more technique-oriented
than typical DI classes, in jive, waltz, and cha. You may have heard
Andrew talking about his ideas for it over the last few months.
It's not competition from other groups, it's just us branching out
(and playing games with the U's silly bureaucracies.)
