By Abra Oliver and Chris Seifers · Wednesday, April 4,2007 12 a.m.

Music Lesson

By Joanna Borns · Wednesday, April 4,2007 12 a.m.

In college, a lot of learning happens outside the classroom. In fact, much of it happens at the local watering holes. All you have to do is listen. And if you listen carefully inside, outside or even 50 feet away from any bar, you’re only going to hear one thing – the same songs you heard last weekend and the weekend before.
