Allow the UC Davis Marching Band to perform without a faculty director.

The Issue

After the formation of the new UC Davis marching band, the UC Davis administration has suddenly decided that the members of the new band may not perform in public until there is a faculty director hired. The administration is now saying that we will not be allowed to support our football team during their 2019-2020 season. Our student directors and drum majors have been trained for two or more years for these performances. The football shows that they have already written are ready to be practiced and performed. In addition, we encourage the presence of a career Campus Recreation representative to oversee our actions. Please sign this petition to help us change the university's mind and allow us to support both our football team, our school, and our community. Thank you for your consideration.
