On Chris Hoch, I am quite saddened to see him passed-up on this opportunity...again. Unfortunately, we all knew they would not choose from within the OSUMB family from the beginning. Chris still deserved more of a chance. That said, after meeting Dr. Spurlin tonight, I really like him. When he said he wasn't aware of any kind of break in relationship between the band and administration, that's to be expected. This was his first time meeting the students, so now that he does know that there is a broken relationship he will hopefully come up with a solution. But there's only so much he can do. He responded well to our questions, and believes in understanding all sides of a situation before making a call. If hired, TBDBITL will be lucky to have him. And if hired, I hope the Auburn band will find a director at least as great as he seemed to us tonight.
