Subj: Major decisions
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 1997 20:51:56 -0400

I want to apologize for the quantity (not to mention the quality)
of my mail to this list. If you can stand it, I have another question.
I want to be a high school band director when I get out of
school, and have some questions regarding not only specific major
options, but also general decisions. I have received many suggestions of
what my major should be. My Music Theory (and choir) teacher says that
"Performance is the way to go." My own band directors seem to have
differences of opinion- some say performance, some others say music
education (another says that I should forget music altogether and go for
the political science degree, only half-jokingly). I was just wondering
if anyone had any suggestions. Also, if there are specific schools that
you would recommend, I would be open to anything. I live near Fort
Worth, Texas, so University of North Texas is sounding nice, but I am
just so confused now.
Thank you so much for your time.

Have fun!
