An Tir does, and in fact for a while had the opposite
train of thought:  they tended to look for people
who had "mastery" of a discipline, and it was a
change of track when they began considering
"Renaissance people" for Laurels.  One interesting
thing that tended to permeate An Tir Laurel circles
(in my inexpert opinion, just running the meeting)
was that there seemed to be a need for some element
of costuming involved--musicians got comments about
their costuming from costuming Laurels, for example.

I don't know if that's current SOP.

Countess Berengaria de Montfort de Carcassonne, OP
(old used Queen of An Tir some time back)
