Georgetown U. Starts a Music Program; Young 'Genius' to Lead Humanities at U. of Chicago; Ex-President of Morris Brown College Returns
NEW NOTES: Until now, serious musicians at Georgetown University sang the blues; the university offered no music major. That will change in 2005, when Georgetown will unveil a new music program, with two newly hired professors.
Instead of keying on "DWEM's" (dead white European males), the university will make American music its theme, says José Antonio Bowen, an associate professor of music. "In the nation's capital, doing American music seems logical," he says.
