It has even progressed to Berklee College of Music.

My brother went there and I visited a lot. Even in the 1960s they accepted players of all levels from awful to pro, and placed them accordingly. It got worse over a few decades before getting better. Thus over the years when someone comes up to me and says, "Yo man, I went to Berklee, can I sit in?", I'm very tempted to answer, "You went to Berklee, but can you play?". In the end, it doesn't matter; you just have to hear them play to decide.
