MENC has a vested interest, not my idea of really impartial collectors =
of data.

Numerous studies have shown that numerous studies show exactly what the =

What we need is a study from the NCAA, for instance, showing that music =
students have increased academic performance relative to athletes. I =
might believe _that_ one.
