I found this on the Oberlin website:

If you don't feel like reading the entire article (of which I copied three paragraphs originally) the twelfth paragraph refers to four ensembles. The student's review also speaks of the liberal arts requirement.......you can pick any subject of interest to you.

As a conservatory I would think they have wind ensemble amongst those four groups. It is also one of the best liberal arts colleges in the country. As Ed Palanker (newly retired bass clarinetist of the Baltimore Symphony) is want to say, it is a great idea to double major in something else in addition to music to give yourself more options.

There are an awful lot of scholarships and grants out there for those on more of a budget. DON'T rule it out!

Oh, and Richard Hawkins teaches there........he's a decent clarinetist! :-)

P.S. The campus is also famous for its population of albino squirrels.
