Jeff Hopper and Laura White joined the faculty after completing studies elsewhere. Several students received private instruction from faculty members. Instruction was offered for both voice and instrument. Articles by Dr. George Baggett appeared in the newsletter of the Society for Music Teachers in Education, a publication for music teachers. Dr. Clifton L. Ganus, III, directed the University Chorus and the Uni- .COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES Department ofMusic versity Singers.
