<p>I know someone on here asked a while back about opportunities for a daughter who was interested in pursuing opera after her four-year degree. This invitation came to me via facebook about a student Opera performance going on at UMASS, and I thought it might be of interest, just as an example of something that an operatically inclined student could be involved in for performance. A girl I lived with at my old house at Smith is one of the singers. </p>
