Detroit Public Schools Radio Class — "Brady Jamzz"
For the past eight years, SIT staffers have taught radio broadcasting at Brady Elementary School in Detroit. Emphasis is placed on speaking standard American English. The students produce "Brady Jamzz," a weekly radio show. The hard work performed by these inner-city students has resulted in a quality radio show.

Alzheimer's Project
SIT staffers are presently involved in a long-range study to determine the effects of Big Band music on Alzheimer's patients. It is truly amazing to watch the patients as their toes start tapping while some even begin singing the songs of their era. SIT's goal is to produce music CDs that can be distributed without charge to Alzheimer's care facilities. Many nursing homes and hospitals now pipe the weekly SIT shows into their buildings each week.

SIT has developed a special personal appearance show that includes snippets of great Big Band music and unusual facts of that era, and regularly entertains residents of senior citizen centers, nursing homes, and Alzheimer's care facilities.
