Musicology is a new class this year. It is being offered for dual-credit for students by Dr. Peterson! Comments from students: "I love that the class is dual credit and in person. I get to listen to music that I would never normally listen to, which is interesting. There are many different versions of "Rock & Roll."

"I highly encourage others to take this class if given the opportunity."

"History of a rock and roll is one of my favorite classes I’ve taken in school. The material is super interesting and being able to learn about a variety of artists ranging from early 20th century today is a blast. Also listening to the artists while learning about them helps make the class more engaging."
