Welcome to this exciting new phase of the College Music Symposium. I am both humbled and honored to be the inaugural Editor for the Scholarship and Research component, which is a premier refereed publication of original scholarly and research articles in the field of music in higher education. The new online format has dramatically expanded on our possibilities, such as diagrams and photos in colors, audio-visual attachments, and most importantly, a much shorter acceptance-to-publication time. The ongoing publication schedule, rather than the annual schedule, should make the publication more timely, relevant, and responsive. At the same time, the Editorial Board and I will uphold the highest standard possible in every accepted submission.
Various forms of scholarship have emerged in higher education since the seminal work of Boyer (1990). Through O’Meara and Rice (2005) and many others, it has become clear that scholarships of teaching and learning, engagement, and integration are as valuable as the long-standing scholarships of discovery and application. As the Symposium is entering its new phase, I would like to encourage CMS members and colleagues to take a look at these forms of scholarship, find relevance, and expand knowledge in our field. Your submission to the Symposium is most welcomed at any time. All you need to do is to logon to the membership area of the Society’s website and complete the submission process.
