Nathan Tucker, President
Collegiate, MENC In Full Swing!
Whew! School is now soaring at full blast. Whatever col- lege you are attending in the state, I hope that you are soaking up every last drop of it—and what better a time than now to do so? Music education is at an all time high in the state.
Many of us are occupied with many rehearsals added on top of core and education classes. Remember that as much as you love experiencing music as a higher art, you should also be paying attention to all the teaching that is happen- ing within each ensemble you are a part of. Observe the pedagogy of your professors. Even take a pad and paper to rehearsal to jot down notes if possible. Make the best use of your time in each hour of your degree. I assure you, it will make the best use of you.
Please be looking for your next issue of Semibreve for many updates on CMENC in Alabama. Many exciting ideas and activities are in store for The Collegiate Division of the Alabama Music Educators Association. The newsletter will soon be published with all the information you need for being an active member in the state.
Between your time rehearsing and going to class, find some time to brain- storm for your chapter. Ask yourself, “How can I help my chapter to better

promote music education in our state and nation?” Take initiative and become a driving force in your chapter. We cannot survive without those dedicated members that step up and get things done.
Lastly, remember the AMEA conference in January. Plan now to attend because this is important to all college stu- dents professionally and educationally as it allows people to meet, connections to be made, and brings a wealth of knowledge to our fingertips. Until then, be encouraged to better yourself as a music educator in every way. SEE YOU IN JANUARY!!!
