I agree college is the time to try new things that you don’t normally have the opportunity to. I played saxophone in the wind ensemble at my university for 3 years while at college.

What I said was academics should come first. If there aren’t enough hours in the day for everything, the marching band will need to be cut before classes are dropped (in my opinion).

Half of incoming freshman don’t graduate from college. For many this is because they got too distracted with things not related to studying and focusing on classes. Hopefully your kids will be the half that graduate.
