Agree with all of this except the bit about the band. The TUMB kids are smart, talented, and pay out of their own pockets to perform in the band. Most are not music majors. They are pre-med, pre-law, and represent almost all Tulane disciplines. They are subject to the rigorous entrance qualifications as are all Tulane students.Pepper wrote: ↑Fri Oct 01, 2021 3:20 pm I honestly believe the University always wanted to go smaller but didn't want the stink on their faces. They can now leverage their position that the decisions made by other outside Gibson Hall. CUSA is where this school belongs. Shitty facilities, shitty band, shitty student support, etc.
Don’t judge the band by the smattering of band members at last week’s UAB game. Participation at the game was voluntary. There had been no rehearsals and many students had not returned to campus.
