Remainder of spring performance schedule was briefly reviewed. Molison has been invited to Tapei following the Australia tour. The finalist will be named by March or April. Janet Alcorn is on faculty improvement leave this semester. No replacement has been hired, so Jean Thomas load has been doubled.
Finances are relatively flat for the year on concert revenue, so funding needs continue.
Scholarship funding, however, is going well. Main areas of concern are music purchases, equipment needs and long-term plans. Jeff Prater is composing a major work for chorus and orchestra. He will take a year s leave to complete the score. One movement was performed last April.
