Serving with Music

While senior Lindsay Player ’18 balances a major in biology and a double minor in chemistry and neuroscience, she uses music as a way to enhance her performance in the lab.

“With music, there is more abstract and creative thought. Being able to troubleshoot has helped me in the lab and in my major with being creative and being able to find solutions,” Player said.

Player is senior co-president of Musical Empowerment, a nonprofit organization on campus that reaches 130 children in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro school district. It was originally founded as Carolina Music Outreach in 2002 with the mission of serving children in underserved communities through free, one-on-one music lessons and other mentorship programs.
