# Master Structure — UNLV Percussion Documentation Workspace Legend: **(H)** = handbook export set · **[new]** = file to create · **[rename]** = existing file, new number/name · **[move]** = existing file, new location · _(MSU §…)_ = source in Morehead State PSP Guidebook · _(KSU — pending source)_ = awaiting Gartner/Dunn handbook upload · _(Contents)_ = from the iterated Contents template. Unmarked items are unchanged. --- ## Root — published - Welcome - {Year} Orientation Page — seasonal; book/equipment content links to 3.1, never duplicated - Forms and Links → dissolves into **1.4** (see below) ## Root — unpublished - Master Map — this document, replacing `Contents` - Handbook Assembly **[new]** — transclusion/link list defining print order of all (H) nodes plus print appendices A–D; the only place web and print structures differ - publish.css --- ## 1 About the Program - 1.1 Program Information **(H)** - 1.2 Operational Details **(H)** — orientation-level locations, security, general schedules only; full room inventory moves to 3.6.5 - 1.3 Faculty and Staff **(H — contact block only)** - 1.4 Forms and Links **[rename — absorbs root "Forms and Links"; single home for all forms/links, ending the 1.4-vs-root split]** ## 2 Prospective Students - 2.1 Audition Requirements (all levels) - 2.2 Help for Incoming Freshman - 2.3 Grad Applicants _(group)_ - 2.3.0 Help for Incoming Grad Students **[rename/move — becomes group hub, matching the 4.x.0 pattern; resolves the 2.3 collision]** - 2.3.1 Applying for Grad School at UNLV **[rename]** - 2.3.2 What is a Graduate Assistantship **[rename]** - 2.3.3 DMA Audition Repertoire List **[rename]** — repertoire entries link into 5.1, not restated ## 3 Studio Policies (Current Students) — entire section **(H)** - 3.1 Percussion Student Requirements - [x] Add: music-ownership rule — students must own all solo music performed on recitals, concerts, juries; applied grade recorded Incomplete until satisfied _(MSU §Percussion Library — near-verbatim candidate)_ - [x] Add: personal financial responsibility — lost music replacement, "you break it, you buy it" _(MSU §Personal Responsibility — near-verbatim candidate)_ - [x] Add: retailer school lists (Steve Weiss "Find My School" / Lone Star equivalents) _(MSU §Find My School — adapt; uncertain: whether UNLV lists exist with either retailer — create them or drop)_ - [x] 3.1.1 Equipment Master List **[new]** _(Contents Appendix D; MSU §First Semester Freshman model — itemized with brand/model examples, which the current 3.1 list lacks)_ — print Appendix D - 3.2 Attendance and Professionalism - [x] Add from _(MSU §Additional Responsibilities — adapt)_: calendar/planner discipline and no-gig-without-calendar rule; professional-audition absence protocol (UNLV analog of Departmental Excuse form); daily comms-check expectation (Slack/RebelMail/board) - [x] Optional add: PASIC attendance encouragement _(MSU §Be active in PAS)_ - [x] 3.3 Ensemble Etiquette _(KSU excision — pending source verification for completeness and any adjacent KSU sections worth adopting)_ - [x] 3.4 Practice Expectations & Lesson Notebook **[new]** _(Contents)_ — absorbs `How To Practice`; notebook requirement cross-links 3.1 - [x] 3.5 Minimum Enrollments and Other Policies **[rename from 3.4 — resolves the 3.4 collision]** - [x] 3.6 Facilities _(group)_ **[rename from 3.4]** - [x] 3.6.1 Percussion Complex Policies — embed **The 12 Golden Rules** _(MSU Appendix E — verbatim-with-attribution candidate; the list is program-agnostic)_ - [x] 3.6.2 Program Assets and Rentals - [x] 3.6.3 Cook Library - [x] 3.6.4 Maintenance Docs - [x] 3.6.5 Complex Inventory & Room Map **[new]** _(Contents; MSU §Practice Rooms model — room-by-room instrument inventory)_ ## 4 Academic Progression and Assessment — fully public - [x] 4.1 Program Competencies — 4.1.0–4.1.3 unchanged - [ ] 4.2 Progression Maps **(H)** — 4.2.0 gains "Mandatory Baseline vs. Individualized Progression" subsection _(Contents — reconciles the stated individualized philosophy with the mandatory minimums/repository structure; this is the philosophical keystone of the whole apparatus and should be written before 4.7)_ - [x] 4.2.1–4.2.3 unchanged - [x] 4.3 Proficiency Minimums — unchanged (4.3.0 hub; 4.3.1–4.3.3 tiers) - [x] 4.4 Applied Lesson Grading **[new]** **(H)** _(Contents)_ - [ ] 4.4.0 Grade Components & Weights **[new]** - 4.4.1 Applied Grading Rubric **[new]** _(MSU Appendix C — adapt;

consider adopting the Semester Repertoire Sheet _(MSU Appendix A)_ here as the paper predecessor of the planned Airtable tracking - [x] 4.6 Recital Requirements **[renumber from 4.5 Recitals]** **(H)** _(Contents)_ - 4.6.0 Recital Types & Minimum Lengths **[new hub]** - 4.6.1 Junior Recitals · 4.6.2 Senior Recitals · 4.6.3 Master Recitals · 4.6.4 Doctoral Recitals **[renumber]** - 4.6.5 Recital Hearing **[new]** - 4.6.6 Program Notes **[new]** - 4.6.7 Recital Checklist **[new]** — print Appendix C - 4.7 Advancement, Probation & Dismissal **[new]** **(H)** _(Contents; MSU §Private-Applied Lesson Grade Responsibility — adapt: MSU's rule is one C = notice, two C's = ineligible; set UNLV thresholds deliberately, and write 4.7 to cite 4.2.0's baseline-vs-individualized framing so policy and philosophy agree)_ ## 5 Repertoire **[new top-level section]** - 5.1 Repertoire Repository _(group)_ - 5.1.0 What is the Repository **[new]** — Bassett Set A/B/C taxonomy explainer (Scanned_Document_2 source); relationship to 4.3 minimums stated once here - 5.1.1 Snare Drum · 5.1.2 Two-Mallet Keyboard · 5.1.3 Four-Mallet Marimba · 5.1.4 Vibraphone · 5.1.5 Timpani · 5.1.6 Multiple Percussion · 5.1.7 Drum Set · 5.1.8 World/Hand Percussion · 5.1.9 Orchestral Excerpts **[new]** — each organized internally by Set A/B/C _(MSU §Repertoire Lists pp.10–21 is the richest seed corpus for populating these — adapt, per-instrument)_ - 5.2 Semester Load Map — Cross-Reference **[new]** _(Contents)_ — points into 5.1; honors the standing repository/load-map decoupling - 5.3 Recommended Repertoire by Degree Level **[move — existing skeleton]** — convert to curated views that link into 5.1 entries; no repertoire text duplicated outside 5.1 - 5.4 Bibliography & Reference Reading **[new]** _(MSU §Percussion and Reference Bibliography pp.22–28 — adapt as seed; cross-link General Knowledge Minimums, which draw from the same corpus)_ ## 6 Courses and Syllabi **[renumber section from 5]** - 6.1 Applied Lessons · 6.2 Ensembles · 6.3 Academic Courses · 6.4 Recital & Document Courses — folder renames only; syllabus filenames unchanged, so no links break - 6.5 Course List **[rename from 5.5]** **(H)** - 6.6 University Policies **[rename from 5.6]** ## 7 Graduate Student Resources **[renumber section from 6]** - 7.1 Doctoral Document Help _(group; internal files unnumbered — acceptable)_ - 7.2 Grad Rebel Gateway Help _(group)_ - 7.3 Graduate Assistantship Duties & Expectations **[new — candidate]** — the enrolled-GA counterpart of 2.3.2; derived: distinguishes prospective explainer from working expectations ## Reference — unpublished, unchanged pattern - Faculty Bio Pages · Terms (Applied Study, Pre-Music Major) · Teaching Percussion · The Switch - Add: Source Archive **[new]** — MSU guidebook, KSU handbook (when supplied), Bassett checklist, prior UNLV handbook PDFs; provenance for every adapted passage ## Attachments — unpublished, unchanged - Jury Sheet PDF · Instrumental Repertoire Form PDF · future rubric/checklist PDFs --- # Handbook Export Mechanics (single source of truth) 1. Every **(H)** note carries frontmatter `handbook: true` plus `handbook-order: N`. 2. `Handbook Assembly` (unpublished) lists the (H) notes in print order and appends print appendices: A = 4.4.1, B = 4.5.2 sheet, C = 4.6.7, D = 3.1.1. 3. Partial: Marked 2 can render a single assembly document if transclusions are converted to its include syntax; alternative is a `cat`-based concatenation script over the `handbook-order` sequence — consistent with the planned sed/YAML semester-variable workflow. Verify Marked 2 transclusion behavior against your version before committing to it. 4. Print handbook scope thereby equals: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 (contact), all of 3, 4.2, 4.4–4.7, 5.2, 6.5 — matching the Contents template's intent while the site carries the superset. # Rename/Move Delta (link-breaking operations only) Obsidian resolves wikilinks by filename, so folder renumbering is free. Note renames (Obsidian auto-updates backlinks if done in-app): `Help for Incoming Grad Students` → 2.3.0 · `Applying…` → 2.3.1 · `What is a GA` → 2.3.2 · `DMA Audition Repertoire List` → 2.3.3 · `3.4 Minimum Enrollments…` → 3.5 · `How To Practice` → 3.4 (retitled) · `4.4.0/4.4.1/4.4.2` → 4.5.x · `4.5.1–4.5.4` → 4.6.1–4.6.4 · `5.5` → 6.5 · `5.6` → 6.6 · `Recommended Repertoire Lists` → 5.3. Approx. 16 renames total. # Adoption Inventory — MSU **Near-verbatim:** music-ownership + Incomplete enforcement (→3.1); financial responsibility (→3.1); Golden Rules with attribution (→3.6.1); room-inventory format (→3.6.5); dismissal-policy language with UNLV thresholds (→4.7). **Adapt:** grading rubric (→4.4.1); sight-reading rubric (→4.4.2); jury scoring weights (→4.5.2); semester repertoire sheet (→4.5.2/Airtable); professionalism additions (→3.2); itemized freshman equipment (→3.1.1); course-tiered repertoire lists (→5.1 seed); bibliography (→5.4 seed). **Already absorbed, no action:** dress code, courtesy/strike, facility-security bullets, PAS membership core. # Adoption Inventory — KSU Pending source. Confirmed holdings: Ensemble Etiquette excision (3.3). On receipt: verify 3.3 completeness against original; sweep remaining KSU sections for topics absent from both MSU and current vault; add mappings here. # Build Order (dependency-driven) 1. Renames/renumbering (16 ops) — do first; everything else links into final numbers. 2. 4.2.0 baseline-vs-individualized subsection — philosophical keystone; 4.7 and 5.2 cite it. 3. Section 4 new apparatus: 4.4 → 4.5.2 scoring → 4.6 recital pages → 4.7. 4. Section 5 scaffolding: 5.1.0 + instrument pages (Bassett import), 5.2, 5.3 conversion, 5.4. 5. MSU near-verbatim insertions into section 3. 6. Handbook Assembly note + frontmatter tagging; test one export. 7. KSU pass when source arrives.
