Music plays a prominent role at Olympic College, both in its academic program and in cultural offerings to the community. The academic program offered by the Department of Mu- sic is three-fold. The course offerings are designed to meet the educational needs of the student who is planning a career in music, those for whom the informed perception of music is an essential part of a general education, and the student who may simply be interested in furthering his educational or avocational interests. Courses such as theory, music history, arranging, conduct- ing, and private vocal or instrumental instruction are of- fered for the student planning a career in the field of mu- sic. His program also includes a liberal sprinkling of work in science and mathematics, the social sciences, and other areas of the humanities. For the general student, the department offers instruction in the fundamentals of music, survey courses of symphon- ic music from the 17th to the 20th Century, and an intro- duction to music history and literature. 102
