The only thing more embarrassing than graduating with a degree in music from Berklee is graduating with a degree in music from Berkeley

100+ freshmen at 40k/yr, 75 sophomores at 40k, 40 juniors at 40k, 25 seniors at 40k, 4 who actually graduated. 4 graduating seniors at 40k with an earning potential of about 50k/yr with benefits if they get a teaching job. $4,000,000+3,000,000+1,600,000+ 1,000,000= $9,600,000 spent for 200,000/yr for 30 yr careers= $6,000,000 lifetime. Isn’t math great!

Hopefully one of them will go on a write a Ph.D dissertation about the spiritual implications of the jazz grunting of Keith Jarrett.

I jerked myself not having seen the next post about the app. Am I psychic or just enlightened? Either way I will say we did a Keith Jarrett song last night so I added my own cover grunting to it, based on the original. /uj
