At UD, resident students have access to a piano in every dorm under a program that began years ago. In addition to providing the pianos in public areas, they are manintained as far as minor repairs go and professionally tuned twice and sometimes three times in an academic year. In the past twelve months we have embarked on a program to trade in our older models with a dozen or so like new models that have significantly raised the bar for the whole inventory across campus. One of the locations for one of the newest models is in Smyth where an old baby grand piano was replaced this past week with an almost brand new model that has already earned praise from some of the residents. Other spots where the newer ones went in included Harter, Lane, Thomas McKean, and Christiana Commons. In the photo is the new grand in the Smyth main lounge.
