Photograph of the San Francisco State College Band rehearsing in uniforms. Students and faculty worked closely together in the Music Federation to develop and finance campus outreach concert tours. The Music Federtion provided San Francisco State’s best public relations during the Great Depression because extensive concert tours of California high schools became venues to attract the most spirited students as well as student music teachers to visit school to look for jobs. The College Band performed at football games and recruited students at high schools throughout California.
