Fullerton never had a marching band, but Long Beach did when I was there 
(1970's) - did they get rid of it?  But, if you are serious hornist, no 
marching band is very definitely a PLUS  Nothing screws up your chops like 
playing while marching

Hi Stephanie,

A large number of the High School Music teachers in
Orange County received their degree from either Cal
State Long Beach or Cal State Fullerton.  I can't
recommend either one as I graduated as an Engineer
from Cal Poly SLO.  The only knock (IMO) on Long Beach
or Fullerton is that neither school has a marching
band (no football).

I'm currently a Junior in High School and I am just
starting to seriously look a colleges. I know that I
want to major in Music Education however I don't
really know which Colleges have a good program.  I'm
from San Diego and ideally I want to stay on the West
coast (which is a long stretch). Does any one know of
colleges with good Music Education programs, I hope to
teach either High School Band or Choir.

Hey my college only had a marching band.  Now I have a good excuse, thanks!
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.


(Never mind that I attended back in the dreamtime.)

Yep, I missed that first time around - marching band would be obligatory for 
that...

Maybe Long Beach still does have a marching band, (I
haven't really asked) but usually lack of football
will kill a marching band.  When I went to the Big
West Tourney last year, Long Beach did have a very
large pep band  (they rotated players, only 35 are
allowed to play in the stands at one time). Cal Poly
brought their marching percussion along. (OK, I'm
bragging; Band always wins)

You will note with the original post, Stephanie wanted
to be a HS Band Director not a professional hornist. 
If she manages to find a teaching position in Southern
California, marching band participation is almost
mandatory.  She should consider more marching band
experience than what she had in HS.
