MUSIC BUSINESS INTERNS
They work everywhere in the music, television and other entertainment industries, and every year there are more than 600 of them.
Not in the music capitals of New York City, Los Angeles or Nashville, but at the upstate New York campus of the State University College at Oneonta, more than 600 students in the college's Music Industry BA program study how the entertainment business works. Then they fan out across the country and the world, to these industry centers and others in Europe and Asia, even Australia. They intern in record companies; radio and TV stations and programs; management and publicity firms that represent artists; law firms and
publishing, licensing and marketing firms that serve them. Founded by a cellist who realized on graduating that she knew everything about her instrument except how to make a living with it, the Oneonta program is one of few Music Industry BA programs in the country, and it has an extraordinary success rate. In some years, 100 percent of graduates
are working in fields related to their majors within a year. Cellist/professor Janet Nepkie Ph.D. is available to discuss this remarkable program in a remarkable place.
