Common Hour

FRIDAYS 2:30-3:20 p.m. Recital Hall /Esber Rehearsal Hall

Common Hour is an official course that when completed successfully appears on your transcript as a one-credit class (Music 101).  It does not appear on your class schedule until you complete the attendance requirement. It is a curricular version of a cumulative pass/fail concert attendance checklist.  You complete and pass the course when you meet the requirement of having attended forty events over four years.  While it is not a strict requirement for you to attend every Common Hour each semester, it is an opportunity that we hope you will embrace to support your fellow musicians as a community recognizing the importance of attending one another’s performances and presentations. In honoring this essential responsibility, we improve our ability as musicians, we renew our love for the art, and we affirm our commitment to each other. This duty involves regular exposure to a wide variety of music, including styles and genres we may not initially understand or appreciate.

Attendance Requirement (Music 101:  Common Hour)
Music 101:  Common Hour is required of all students pursuing undergraduate degrees in music.  This course is designed as a vehicle for monitoring student attendance at Common Hours and Freshman Experience. Attendance at 40 of these events will constitute satisfactory completion of the course. NOTE: first-year music majors are required to attend all Freshman Experience events. Records of attendance are maintained by the School of Music office.
