a. Rationale for creation, revision, or deletion
MUSC 293, Jazz
Improvisation I (3 credits), and MUSC 294, Jazz Improvisation II (3 credits)
will be deactivated. These courses will be
replaced by three two-credit private study and repertoire classes in jazz
styles and techniques (MUSC 182, 282, and 283) which will join MUSC 181 and 281
already in existence for a five-course sequence of private study and repertoire
classes in jazz styles and techniques. The number of credits does
not change and remains 21 credits for the minor. The rationale is that
the classes on Jazz Improvisation were not as effective as private study for
students to develop improvisational and stylistic skill using jazz
techniques. Having five semesters of private study and repertoire class
will allow students more time to focus on developing improvisational and
stylistic techniques in jazz.

b. Summary of program:
The Music Minor: Jazz Studies is a
concentration designed for non-music majors who desire focused study of jazz
and its performance techniques, and for music majors who wish a structured
study of jazz which is an important aspect of a comprehensive education in
music.
