Jazz Studies at MichiganState University
As Michigan State University begins to discuss ways to reduce current and projected budget shortfalls, we have become aware of false rumors relating to the status of the Jazz Studies
Program within the College of Music. We want to assure our current jazz majors, their parents,

and graduate degree programs in jazz at Michigan State University are continuing. The only
aspect of the jazz major to be discontinued is, regretfully, the jazz voice specialization.
