MUSIC 100 is required of all majors and minors of the Department of Music.  It is graded on a Pass/Fail (P/F) basis, and its sole requirement is attendance at a set number of Department of Music approved events.

How Music 100 Works

Please note that TWELVE (12) events are being required this semester.

1.  The official and current list of approved MUSIC 100 events will be posted in the Music Office and on the Department of Music website.  Should any changes be made during the semester, both listings will be updated to remain current.

2. Students may choose to use up to two (2) off-campus events to apply to MUSIC 100.  Any event, other than the Winston-Salem Symphony or Piedmont Opera, must receive prior approval from the Chair of the department.

3.  A list of MUSIC 100 enrollees will be available from the student worker at the lobby ticket booth.  MUSIC 100 students are to sign their name before the event and initial it afterwards.  Evidence of attendance at an off-campus concert must include a ticket stub and copy of the program, both of which are to be submitted to the Chair of the department for verification.

4.  Students who are performing in an event still have the responsibility of signing the MUSIC 100 signature sheet.  If unable to do this, notification must be made to Carol Brehm in the Music Office the next school/work day.

5. MUSIC 100 ENROLLEES MUST ATTEND THE ENTIRE EVENT TO RECEIVE CREDIT FOR IT.

6.  After the event, the signed sheet will be given to the MUSIC 100 "instructor" (Dr. Carter) for attendance credit.

7. It is the responsibility of each student to keep track of his or her own attendance of MUSIC 100 events.

The Music faculty urges students to pace their attendance carefully throughout the semester. Warning notices regarding a pending "Fail" grade will not be sent.  Special requests concerning the inability to comply with these requirements should be made in writing to the instructor and will seldom be approved.
