Carillon Recitals
The Carillon recitals will be suspended until about March 1, on account of the winter weather. At that time an announcement will be made of recitals for the remainder of the year.
Notices : The right is reserved to make such changes in the dates and artists announced as necessity may require. While wide and prompt publicity is given to dates thus changed, to avoid inconvenience it is suggested that, so far as possible, out-of-town guests confirm the dates in advance.
The concerts in the Faculty and Organ Recital Series are given without admission charge; for obvious reasons small children will not be admitted.
