01 · The Problem
Students see one job. The industry has fifty.
Ask a student to name a music career and you’ll hear one answer: the artist. Behind every release is an industry of producers, engineers, managers, lawyers, and analysts — the careers most students never knew existed.

Bring the industry onto campus.
