Caleb Gunn brings curiosity, creativity, and a thoughtful perspective to ECC. His passion for performing helped lead him to music, and he plans to continue his education at SEMO.

Outside the classroom, Caleb enjoys rock, counts Pearl Jam among his favorites, and has a strong interest in space. He is also drawn to big questions and meaningful discussion, especially around politics and ethics.
When he is not debating with friends or trying to pin down the lyrics to “Yellow Ledbetter,” Caleb serves as president of the Student Government Association.

Describing himself as a musician, articulate, and inquisitive, Caleb brings a unique voice to the Falcon community, and we are glad he is part of it. 🎵✨

We had a MARVELOUS night with the St. Clair High School Band. Thank you Austin Douty, Christy Gentili, Dr. Ward and all of the staff at St. Clair for being such wonderful hosts.

Thank you to the students of St. Clair for sharing your concert and talent! WHAT. A. BAND!!! Everyone in my band was talking about your piece, “Teal!!” I loved them all!

Most of all, thank you to Tim Karth for putting it all together and collaborating! It was a honor and a blast!

A gigantic congratulations to Tori Johnson (flute) and John Eggert (horn) on their concertos. You both knocked it out of the park!

Congrats to my band for completing “Symphony 1: A Ghost Story.” I truly loved the journey and it made for several memorable performances. Bravo!

Lastly, if you’re near St. Clair and have a chance to check out their new auditorium, do it! It’s a beautiful facility with great acoustics!
