Our S loved everything about Carleton and was fortunate to be admitted.

One think is bugging him, though, and I wonder if anyone could shed light on the topic. Every school S visited, he tried the pianos in the practise rooms. He doesn’t plan to be a music major, but playing music is a huge part of his life. Well, the practise rooms he checked at Carleton had some of the most neglected pianos we found during our college search – out of tune, action shot, etc. He chatted with some other students about it and they insisted that there WERE decent piano in practise rooms – but we didn’t find them.

Can anyone shed light on this?

P.s. Lest we seem to be music snobs, you should know that our home piano is a decent, but unspectacular, upright Kwai.
