One would think that. It has been "unofficial" for about 20 years so this is definitely an interesting change for the college. Are they having trouble recruiting from their regular "pools"?
Plopped down a chunk of scraped up and hard-earned cash for a saxophone for my youngest. His old one was falling apart as he played it. Music store accepted 50% down and let us walk with the horn. Next week will have 100 hours pay plus bonus and that will complete the purchase. I'm broke again of course, but my employment continues as does my enjoyment of my son's music passion and all the benefits he reaps. Cautiously and momentarily content.
I was walking outside my office and there is a jazz band in a park nearby and they have a saxophone and my first thought as I walked by was “Life with a Cowboy Bebop soundtrack”
