  • Judy W. Moore, Doctor of Philosophy, 2004 Dissertation Directed By
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: MUSIC EDUCATION IN PRINCE GEORGE ’S COUNTY , M ARYLAND , FROM 1950 TO 1992: A N ORAL HISTORY ACCOUNT OF THREE PROMINENT MUSIC EDUCATORS AND THEIR TIMES Judy W. Moore, Doctor of Philosophy, 2004 Dissertation directed by: Professor Marie McCarthy School of Music This dissertation documents the professional lives of three prominent music educators in Prince George’s County, Maryland —LeRoy Battle, Maurice Allison, and Dorothy Pickard —whose careers from 1950 to 1992 spanned the period of school desegregation and its aftermath. The professional lives of Battle, Allison, and Pickard, their philosophies of teaching, and the instructional strategies they used in building music programs of distinction are examined employing method s of oral history. The interviews of twenty -three other Prince George’s County professionals , including a county executive, a superintendent, county teachers, and county administrators , combine with testimony of the three music educators in creating the fa bric of this historical dissertation. Set in Prince George’s County, scene of dramatic societal change between 1950 and 1992, county educational, cultural, societal, and political processes are explored to gain understanding of the lives and times of Battl e, Allison, and Pickard. Although the 1954 Brown vs. Board of Education ruling ended the era of “separate -but -equal” schooling in the United States, it was not until December 29, 1972, that a countywide system of busing of students was ordered in Prince Ge orge’s County to enforce racial balance in schools . Busing altered the racial distribution in county schools and was thought by many to have precipitated “white flight” of Prince George’s residents to surrounding jurisdictions.

    March 19, 2012 L EARN E XCEL A CHIEVE P ERFORM E XPLORE R ISE Volume 6, Annual Issue DEAR FRIENDS & SUPPORTERS, ` A word from our President and Founder-Rhonda Thomas In my recent correspondence received from the University of Southern California, Dean of the School of Engineering, Dean Yortsos reflects on the following: “In a speech in North Carolina, the President of the United States of American singled out just one profession to spur the econ- omy: engineers. He called for the training of 10,000 additional new engineers-every year to fill and create the high tech, problem-solving jobs of the future. He knows that engineers will run the engine of future economic development; that they are the lifeblood of companies like Intel, Apple and Facebook-but what’s more, that they are the lifeblood of the next Intel, Apple and Facebook.” I agree with President Obama’s assessment and note that it is also critical that we consider a diverse engineering workforce. There is no doubt that companies like Intel, Apple and Face- book ultimately benefit from the views, ideas and experiences of people who represent the por- trait of the world. Outreach to minority youth is essential. I believe the President’s vision aligns with our vision to develop a generation of minority youth that will accept the challenge to become academically prepared to enter math and science- based careers and to become the problem solvers and productive leaders that will address the needs of all humanity. They need to know the far reaching impacts of STEM extend from what cars we drive, what tennis shoes we wear, what toys we play with to what amusement park rides we enjoy and on and on.
