"One of the main reasons I chose UPS was because of the music community, and I’m so glad that I did. The friendships I have found here have been perhaps even more important to me than the wonderful music we’ve made."
"At Puget Sound, I have the opportunities to make music in so many capacities at a high level; you can't get that diverse and insightful musical experience anywhere else."
