College Cources in Music Education

This article concludes Mr. King's abstract of The Content and Teaching of College Courses in Music Education, a master's thesis completed at Northwestern University. The previous installment of the review was published in the October, 1933, issue of this magazine.

Data were obtained from 67 institutions of higher learning that are reputed to have strong departments in music education. These included 31 universities, 17 state teachers colleges, 10 colleges, and 9 conservatories. A 1931-1932 catalog was secured from each of these institutions. All information bearing on the problem at hand was taken directly from these catalogs, in so far as it was possible to do so. A questionnaire was then sent to the instructors in charge of the music education courses asking for information that could not be secured satisfactorily from the catalogs.
