ATTENTION OWL NATION! Please join us in welcoming our new Assistant Director of Bands, Dr. David Roush!
Dr. Roush holds a bachelor of music degree in Music Education from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, a master of music degree in Wind Conducting from the University of Minnesota Twin-Cities, and a doctor of musical arts degree in Wind Conducting from Northwestern University. He has studied conducting with Dr. Mallory Thompson, Dr. Emily Threinen, and Dr. Linda Moorhouse, and in 2019 he was chosen as one of 12 Conducting Fellows at the Midwest Clinic’s Reynolds Conducting Institute.
Prior to completing his graduate studies and arriving at Kennesaw State, Dr. Roush was an active music educator in the public schools of Illinois, serving from 2013-2019 as Band Director for the North Clay and Neoga School Districts. In these roles, he taught band for grades 4-12, guiding his students from their first sounds until their high school graduation. During this time, the bands under his direction consistently sent students to Illinois All-District and All-State festivals, received high marks from adjudicators, and were selected multiple times to perform at state-level athletic competitions.
He currently maintains active memberships in the College Band Director’s National Association, National Band Association, and the National Association for Music Education.

“The Marching Owls” Marching Band, Kennesaw State University
Founded in 2015, “The Marching Owls” have already traveled to away games to support the team (Go Owls!), performed at exhibitions across the state, represented the university at a Board of Regents private performance, supported our administration at president investitures, and spread cheer and Owl Pride at many run-out events across the campus and state!
Under the direction of Dr. Debra Traficante, the KSUMB began it’s first season with almost 250 founding members. The program has maintained and garnered interest from students across the state, region, and nation. The KSUMB is the largest, most visible student organization on campus and takes pride in serving Kennesaw State University as ambassadors for the institution.
Serving students from every college on both the Kennesaw and Marietta campuses, the make-up of the band is predominantly non-music major oriented. This is the norm for collegiate programs nationally, where approximately 80%-90% of the college marching band are students from other degree fields outside of music. Approximately 10%-20% of the college marching bands are music majors.
In order to be a member of this performing ensemble, students music perform an audition for the leadership - both music and marching. Every year, every position on the field is re-auditioned in order to ensure the best and most-dedicated students earn positions.
