3. The area coordinator is required to arrange for at least two faculty members to attend the recital and act as a jury. Of these two members, one must be the applied teacher and the second faculty member should be the area coordinator. If the applied teacher and area coordinator are the same person, the area coordinator is responsible for finding another faculty member to evaluate the performance.

4. The student should and area coordinator should then consult with the chairperson in order to find an available time in Ingalls Recital Hall that is acceptable for the two faculty members and all performers. Seminars cannot to be used for student recitals.

5. The student is responsible for designing his/her recital program and writing program notes. These must meet with the approval of the area coordinator. Once approved by the area coordinator, this material should be submitted to the MDT office at least two weeks prior to the recital for printing and publicity purposes.
