Talk:Conductor

1989-1990

Does anyone know who (if anyone) conducted? HLPXX 22:37, April 16, 2007 (EDT)

• I don't know who conducted, but I'm guessing the information should be written on the side of the podium. Bickfa 17:43, April 17, 2007 (EDT)

I may be wrong, but if I remember conductor history correctly, the year after A. Olin Niles retired, the position of conductor was handled more ad hoc than anything else. There were a few people who led games repeatedly, but noone was actually appointed. It was supposed to be some sort of trial year for the band: if they could perform well without a paid conductor for a whole season, the Union (and/or the Arts department?) would let them continue as such. Might be good to ask someone closer to that era, like Prof. Derby, to verify. TrekMuse 08:52, February 11, 2008 (EST)
