Junior choreographers Ryan Smith, Courtney Rowe, and Jonathan Martin started choreographing together their first year and establish RCJ, a student run company named for the initials of their first names, that they sustained throughout their years at Brown, developing new works and peforming in all concerts. Undergraduate student Alison Mara Friedman presented "Too Many Maurice." (2001). Jeffrey Edwards was a Resumed Undergraduate Education (RUE) student. Many RUE students have been dancers who, like Jeffrey, enriched the dance program by sharing their experiences as professional dancers with their younger undergraduate classmates. Undergraduate choreographers and performers Ryan Smith, Alison Mara Friedman, Jeffery Edwards, and Yaya Johnson went on to have distinguished careers in the dance field.
