Recruiting All Musicianly Men! In the spirit of bringing those who create music, who appreciate music, and who embody music to its fullest extent together (or even if you just like music in general), we are seeking those who still have strong ties to their musical upbringing and want to share their love of music with their fellow Brother and the community at large. As we look to start a chapter of Phi Mu Alpha here at DU, we are recruiting any and all manly musicians to join. You do not have to be a music student (major or minor) nor take classes in the Lamont School of Music to show interest in joining. All fields of study and all levels of education welcome and encouraged to reach out. So yes, you can be a second-year political science major, a fourth-year musicology major, a first-year graduate law student, or a member of any other discipline here at DU to express interest. While we are recruiting "men," this invite extends to all cisgender men and male-identifying persons. If you have a question or concern about this, please reach out and ask for clarification! Look for future announcements regarding event dates, times, and locations!
