We are committed to providing HOUGHTON COLLEGE conducting students opportunities to exploring the world of conducting, and acquire the skills necessary to be successful in it.  Members of the Houghton College Student Chapter are traveling to the National convention where they will learn from experienced conductors, and hear top quality performances.  In addition, our student chapter is also heavily involved in the planning and execution of our annual Houghton College High School Choral Festival.  I am proud of our student chapter here at Houghton College know that the experiences provided through this organization will further develop our students for success in their profession.  This year we will be bringing in Dr. Jerry Blackstone to provide lectures and master-classes for our young conductors.

Members of the Houghton College ACDA student chapter members were selected, by an panel of expert conductors, as conductors in the 2006 Eastern Division Conducting master-class.
