RATIONALE:
A mid-level review has been piloted for the past several years in the Music Department.
It has proven to be an effective assessment tool and advising session for students. The
Department wishes to formalize the process by adding the Mid-Level Review statement
to the catalog.
The Music Department is seeking ways to improve the quality of its programs. Under the
Mid-Level Review, students will not be removed from the Music Department. However,
students not meeting the musical, technical, and professional standards of the Bachelor of
Music program will be directed to pursue a Bachelor of Arts in Music degree at Keene
State College. The Mid-Level Review is not an enrollment management tool, it is an
assessment tool that helps to ensure academic, artistic, and career success for all music
majors.
The proposed program change places a great emphasis on music pedagogy and
musicianship in the Music for Elementary Teachers specialization. The current
curriculum for this specialization has too many music literature requirements and too few
pedagogy requirements.
