Students: Rachel Symth-Godinger

Discussed old buisness

New business:
Topics for discussion: Couches in lounge, pianists for juries, concert attendance, faculty attendance

1) Pianists for juries: School is in the process of hiring an accompanist; chamber music performance degree? Collaborative piano curriculum?

2) Concert attendance: Making it mandatory? Concert reports? How do we make this possible? Revising the curriculum? Tie it in with history? performance seminar! (discuss performance seminar next week?) Reviving MSA?

What will this committee accomplish?
-Registration and advisement (Lesley and Prof. Bell)
-Publicity
-Solid practice room policy

Come with ideas for next meeting

*Music advisement week? Open hours for advising: sign up faculty for advisement week like senior concentration; maybe 10th week of the semester and couple of days before the new semester starts; what about general registration? Someone needs to be present for general registration
