2006-11-04 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -Database Manager

2010-03-10 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- Two prepared-for stops constructed by Casavant in 2001 and installed by René Marceau. -Database Manager

2011-07-12 - Updated through online information from Calhoun. -- The current Seattle AGO dean is just back from the regional with reports. He includes, and the college web page confirms, that the 16' installed by Marceau is in fact a "bourdon," and not a "quintade," as originally listed. Dean Locke compares the acoustic of the room favourably to that of the Pacific Lutheran hall, a couple of hundred seats smaller. -Database Manager
