Notes

In the 1921-1922 school year, students were involved in two choirs. The College Chorus was directed by William Cathey. The Girls' Glee Club was a new chorus to the school at this time, directed by Golda Nelson Kendrick.

The College Chorus presented a number of cantatas during the year. Their first concert featured the cantata "Glory of the Morn." Their second featured "Life Everlasting" by Petrie. During Commencement festivities, they presented a performance of the "Messiah" by Handel.
