Download or read book THE TRUTH THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH written by Lenard C. Bowie, DMA and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-12-20 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After terminating my tenure and positions as Trumpet Teacher, Associate Director of Bands and Chairman of Instrumental Music at Florida A&M University in 1980, I was bombarded with questions and often criticized on the wisdom of abandoning the pathway I had earned as heir apparent to the position of Director of Bands. Rumors were also whispered that I was fired for involvement in questionable and unprofessional faculty-student relationships. I deliberately hesitated to answer such questions, first, because they could possibly be interpreted as my being critical of the people and the program that made it possible for me to develop whatever God given talents I possessed. Second, I chose to quietly accept said criticisms and dismiss the rumors to avoid giving them credibility by commenting on them one way or the other. However, I have always felt an obligation to provide the truth to the friends, colleagues, and fans that assisted in the realization of my professional pursuits at FAMU. These questions and inquiries gradually subsided after my appointment as Chairman of Fine Arts at the University of North Florida four years later. Thirty one years later, the disturbing news from Orlando, Florida, announcing the death of Robert Champion, a FAMU Drum Major, renewed the urgency for me to address long standing and new questions on various aspects about FAMU’s band. The untimely death of Champion resulted, allegedly, from a brutal “ritual of acceptance” hazing, on the occasion of the 2011 Orange Blossom Classic football game between the Florida A&M and Bethune Cookman Universities. Regrettably many supporters, fans and former band members, including myself, had long feared such an occurrence would happen sooner or later. I was similarly harassed as a freshman during the 1958 band season following the Orange Blossom Classic held in Miami. In spite of my negative treatment, I went on to become Band President and, after graduating, Associate Director of this esteemed organization. Therefore, I feel intimately familiar with the band and its history, including the unsanctioned tradition of hazing, and feel competent to voice my opinions on the question of hazing and on the current and future status of the FAMU band program. Following the death of Mr. Champion, I again began receiving renewed calls, visits, and e-mails, inquiring of my thinking and position on the situation at hand. After Dr. Julian White, Director of Bands, was unceremoniously terminated, over 150 former students encouraged me to seek the position of Director. Obviously, those encouraging me to do so, did not factor in my advancing age or health status. Nonetheless, these renewed questions awakened the need and obligation for me to speak out and weigh- in on long standing issues about the band and my reasons for abandoning it. Accordingly, the crisis of Mr. Champion’s death has created a renewed sense of urgency for me to finally speak out and describe how such issues led to my departure from the FAMU Marching Band. It is hoped that this booklet will provide truthful answers to long standing questions and serve to explore a plethora of traditions and misconceptions about the band. This writing is a recollection of my personal journey as a student participant and eventual Associate Director of this Band. The reader is therefore afforded to share the author’s perspective, insight and self-discovery during this time frame. It is hoped that this booklet will positively assist in a similar “societal-discovery” and serve as a deterrent to hazing, violence and other punitive actions that have all but become standard codes of conduct on many college and university campuses.

Download or read book Sounding Institutional Memories Through the College Marching Band written by Katherine Pittman and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sounds of college marching bands embellish the atmosphere of university rituals as disparate as formal university convocations, fundraiser benefits, and sporting events. University officials, band members, alumni, and other affiliates often frame these contributions through mythologies of tradition and in turn task the band with bearing the identity of the collegiate institution as a whole and stewarding its legacy through performances of tradition. I argue that sounding institutional memories in this way reveals linkages between college bands, their military predecessors, and the formation of the modern neoliberal university. The affective tenor of archival and ethnographic sources simultaneously obscures and mythologizes this relationship in the institutions' memories, this thesis explores the interpersonal negotiations and structural underpinnings of institutional memories as they manifest within and around the University of California Marching Band (Cal Band), founded in 1891 to serve the flagship Berkeley campus. This research draws from oral histories, material artifacts, social media commentary, and embodied memories that evoke, verify, and dispute institutional memory. I hold this case study of institutional memory alongside theories of nostalgia, hauntology, critical university studies, and disability studies to ground the sonic and affective intangibles in discourses that take seriously the tangible effects of memory on the structures and individuals that govern and discipline students in college bands today.
