<p>Wow, congratulations to you! Three great schools. I can’t answer all of your questions but absolutely Wesleyan has many student bands, which seem to emerge organically. See [url=<a href=“http://www.wesleying.org%5DWesleying%5B/url”>http://www.wesleying.org]Wesleying[/url</a>] for many blog posts about what is going on musically there. All three schools, if you study hard in school, will prepare you well for grad school in the Ivy League. I am an alum of Wes, so I am biased but after my son visited 27 colleges all over the US, he opted for Wesleyan Early Decision, much to my surprise and delight. IMHO Wes was a great place to go to school thirty years ago and it’s become an even better place now. Good luck with your choice and have a great time in the fall wherever you go!</p>
