From Plan Into Action
After $17 million worth of renovations to the original 1920’s gymnasium that housed FSU’s original Department of Dance, and the National Center for Choreography in the works, Montgomery Gym was revitalized in October 2004 to become one of the nation’s leading dance facilities. FSU alumna Maggie Allesee endowed the choreographic center which was renamed as the Maggie Allesee National Center for Choreography (MANCC). “Maggie Allesee is a 1949 FSU graduate in English, journalism, and education, who now lives in Detroit. She was head cheerleader on the first FSU cheerleading squad, and the first woman to earn a varsity letter at Florida State”. Allesee’s endowment assisted in making the plan of MANCC a reality.
