Vying for a coveted spot in one of the groups, students begin the trial process by signing up for an audition time and preparing a verse and chorus to a song of their choosing. For first-year Engineering student Sol Eskinazi, that song was "Breakfast at Tiffany's." "I just kind of chose it out of the blue," Eskinazi said.
