Chabot College Music; Eric Schultz; Emailed on 11/9/18 and 10/30/18; No response as of 11/30. Ohlone College Music; Commercial Music; Jim McManus; We offer similar course e.g. “Intro to Music Technology"; he doesn't know if our program will impact Ohlone's but supports the plan. Los Medanos College; Recording Arts; Frank Dorritie; From Frank - As you know, LMC offers an AA in Recording Arts and a Certificate Program. Your proposed courses would cover some of the same ground, though perhaps in less detail than our degree program. I envision no conflicts, given our respective geographic locations. Indeed, we may find ways to cooperate, to the benefit of students. Personally, I continue to support your efforts to develop these related classes. Los Medanos College Recording Arts; Kyle Chuah; I suspect we serve different communities and thus the offering of the similar program at Las Positas College will probably have minimal impact on our own offerings. I support your planned curriculum. DVC Music Industry Studies; Nick Vasallo; Does not support the planned curriculum as he anticipates that their enrollment will decline.
