School of Music Event Scheduling Policies
School of Music scheduling policies remain in place. The onboarding of our new space management system, Mazévo, does not change these policies.
Major, annual events are scheduled in the previous year. Below is an outline of the process.
TIER 1 — School of Music Ensembles
- Bands, choirs, jazz, orchestras are scheduled by the Conducting and Ensemble area — one year ahead.
TIER 2

- Faculty/Guest Artist Recitals, including the Rush Hour series, are scheduled via a process outlined by the Concert Committee. Dates are pre-set, and claimed through a process that usually opens in March via a separate form on our site.
TIER 3 — Specialty events
