ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS and/or COMMENTS

The students are divided into three groups. Each group rotates through the cycle of three traditions led, respectively, by the three instructors. Each instructor designs his or her own readings, assignments and methods of evaluation. Candidates for entry to the music major must take Music 101 twice during their first and second years. Unless preregistered students attend the first class meeting or communicate directly with the instructor prior to the first class, they will be dropped from the class list. NOTE: Students must still submit a completed Drop/Add form to the Registrar's office.
