Former TCC student Brandon Mason instructs a week of dance courses where students could sign up for free to learn about hip-hop and ballet. After Mason left TCC, he was successful in New York and Los Angeles. Amy Sleigh, NW associate dance professor, said Mason was one of the first to return to NW as an alumnus during the 15 years of the NW dance program. Photo by Yesenia Santillan/The Collegian
