Hey y'all!
Just joined so I could be helpful to those interested in Cal Poly State University San Luis Obispo and their Mustang Band (yes, there was someone who wanted info and I have already emailed them). I'm currently the Asst DM and will be the DM next year. So there ya have it! Another college member.

Cal Poly does have a music department and major (as well as minor). I'm sure there are other schools that are better for that major, but if you love the area then Cal Poly's fine. We have plenty of awesome musicians (I'm around them ALL the time) and we do have some great professors. The Mustang Band is about 70-80 strong and WE LOVE BAND!! It's all about fun. Many members are also members of other ensembles. Any one person could be a member of 3 or 4 ensembles and still succeed in their major (and no, our school isn't easy). As far as I know, we only have 1 music major in the Mustang Band, so that speaks volumes for the diversity of our program.
Anyway, rock on, and I'm here for more answers. I'm totally stoked about band this upcoming year and I'm hoping for big changes to make it even better.
