The Music Council of Majors has begun regular meetings and a Constitution has been proposed to the SGA. There will be updates on this page regarding meeting minutes, and information regarding contact.

Recently Discussed Issues

Meeting of March 31, 2010

- New Music. Possibility of talking to department heads about increasing variety of performances to include more traditional, tonal, Western music. Classical music is more readily available off campus, discussion of facilitation of attendance of off-campus performances.
- Mirrors in practice rooms. This would not entail only the purchase of mirrors, but also safety/liability concerns. Major renovation concerns are currently being put aside because of new Fine Arts building being underway.
- How to spread word about clean up party, April 11th, Sunday, 11am-3pm. It can run longer if necessary. Sweeping, vacuuming. Brillo pads, all purpose cleaners. Clean dressing room? Repaint steps, stage. Apply lubricant to seat hinges to prevent squeaking. (Ellen made announcement at forum.)
- Possibility of advocating for inclusion of music software (Sibelius, Finale) in bookstore's software program?
- Discussion of student feelings toward Music 358.
- Discussion of Percussion Methods in comparison to other methods classes. It is not a majors-only class, and therefore most of the class is not how to teach young students, but rather how to play rhythms.

- Final edits to draft of Constitution
- Possibility of Clean Up party in recital hall? (confirmed)
- Council members to be interviewed as part of review in April.
