In order to account for all former NU students, I would like to identify those students that teach in public and private school music programs, those that are or have participated in one of the United States Military Service, those that perform professionally, either concert or jazz and those who have chosen a completely different professional career. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF A MODIFICATION TO ANY ENTRY NEEDS TO BE MADE. LET ME HEAR FROM YOU!
