With the nationwide emphasis on standardized testing in our public schools, music education often takes a back seat to subjects that get tested. But if music is good for the brain, as some scientists suggest, should it be stressed? Guest host Eric Hodge discusses the educational and philosophical benefits of music education with: Don Hodges, music professor and director of the Music Research Institute at UNC-G; Jennifer Stewart Walter, assistant professor of Music Education at UNC-G, and Jonathan Burdette, Associate professor of Radiology at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center.
