Now their original research, they are currently investigating or have written on the following women's bands: the Canadian WAC Bands, the Hormel Girls, the Women's Air Force Band, and the 14th Army Band.

Additionally, ASU doctoral students are researching and writing on the following historical topics: various aspects of curricular offerings of America's public normal schools; music education in the one-room school houses of Maryland; the history of the San Diego High School Alumni Choir; the history of the Blue Devils Drum and Bugle Corps; the history of the National Solo and Ensemble Contests; a biography of Lillian Williams--the first band and orchestra director of the Tempe Normal School.
