[CAUT] Rice University

[David M. Porritt]

Eric:

Dean Shank, DMA is the technician/piano faculty member.  Years ago he was half-time piano technician and half-time teacher I believe.  Now he has another working with him.  Avery Todd at U of Houston probably knows more about their program.

PS I wasn't aware of the Florida program.  Which school?  Is there more info on the web?
