We haven't heard how expensive the repair is going to be yet. I'm guessing the plate survived. The department does (or should) retain insurance for catastrophic damage. The student should have to work off the deductible and then some--so many hours a week at minimum wage. It should be for the music department, not necessarily on pianos, and could include janitorial work, emptying waste baskets or better cleaning toilets. ;-) Ok, that was my vindictive streak. Interesting a student in piano maintenance is a good idea. Raises respect for the instruments and the profession. Andrew C.
