Faculty for the clinic is drawn from across the country, as well as utilizing a number of public school teachers from Utah and the region. Ted Ashton, past Logan High School orchestra director and now a faculty member at Ricks College, is a faculty member this summer and will direct the clinic's string orchestra. Paula Holcomb, director of bands at Central College in Pella, Iowa, returns to the clinic for a second year. She directs the clinic's symphonic band. A number of Music Clinic events are open to the public.
Some concerts are free, while others have a minimal charge.
We at Utah State University appreciate recognition of our strict alcohol policy. However, we pride ourselves as trend setters more than trend joiners. We are not jumping on some national bandwagon. We have been driving that wagon for years now. For example, Utah State University's residence facilities have always been substance free, and fraternity and sorority housing has been substance free for more than five years.
