  1. I looked up Professor Wates and was sad to hear of her passing. I was her student at BU in 2007 and 2009, in the Intro to Music and Mozart courses respectively. She was one of the most inspiring educators I had at BU, and I didn’t even go to school for music! We had meaningful conversations at her office hours, and her spirited love of music was both refreshingly honest and uncommonly bold. Her class was tough because she cared so deeply about sharing the subject, but man was it worth it if you put in the time. God bless Roye Wates and her family.
