GOAL

The goal of No Jackets Required (NJR) is to promote the performance, discussion, and appreciation of contemporary popular music within the University community. This goal will be achieved through scheduled meetings, rehearsals, programming, and performance of repertoire each semester.

 

WHO WE ARE

No Jackets Required is a student-activities funded music performance club at the University of Rochester, open to all students.

We perform in ensembles, host shows & open mics, support other groups' events, all while giving students the opportunity to develop their performance and organizational skills.
