Sports and the Arts

Horseback Riding, Music, and Dance were of special interest to Igler during her time at Ward-Belmont. Activities like these are essential in both team-building and cultural awareness, which would aid Igler both in law school and in her legal career. Below are some materials depicting her involvement in all three acitivities.

Given the context of the social clubs' name originations, and the possibility of racism within these clubs, the costuming in this dance comes across a bit sinister.
