Comings and Goings

As the new year comes more fully into view, allow me to take a moment to express our collective gratitude to our outgoing CMS Board members and to welcome our new officers.  It is a truism of professional societies, that the responsibility to uphold and perpetuate the organization’s mission resides in each of us; this is certainly true in regard to CMS.  Incoming board members who have already hit the ground running include: Teri Dobbs (Music Education), Emery Stephens (Performance), Gene Trantham (At Large Member), Kim Wangler (Music Industry) and Charles Young (Treasurer).  We extend a hearty thanks to outgoing Board members: Amanda Soto (Music Education), Richard Dammers (At Large Member), Ann Sears (Treasurer), and Nicole Molumby (Performance) for their just in time ideas, intellectual labor, collegiality, and good cheer.  Lastly, my sincere thanks to Past-President Keith Ward, whose ability to imagine the possible will continue to influence the direction of the Society for years to come.

The College Music Society, a non-profit membership organization composed of approximately 6,000 musicians, announces internships for students interested in acquiring arts administration experience and learning about the challenges and rewards of working in a non-profit environment.
