Alan. The reason college know to ask for 30 years experience for a carpenter, is because that is what other colleges are requiring. Most colleges are requiring only 3 years of experience for piano technicians. That's the going rate. Just like the going rate for a head football coaches is $1M per year. One of these days, "they" will figure it out.

When he was hired, it was partly because he had the required TWENTY years experience. Compared to that, the mere three years required by MTSU doesn't seem like much to ask for.
