Jazz Prof goes the extra mile for scholarships
Via http://jazz.unt.edu/extramile
Every year, some students who earn admission to our program can’t attend without the help of a scholarship. Like many of my College of Music colleagues, I contribute to a scholarship each year through the Dean’s Camerata. This year I wanted to do more. When one of my Jazz Studies colleagues heard I was doing the Stonebridge Ranch Triathlon (Olympic distance) in McKinney, TX on Sept. 30, he suggested I make it a fundraiser. So that’s what I’m doing. I invite your pledge towards the goal of $4,000, which will support a four-year commitment to a $1,000 scholarship per year for a jazz studies undergraduate student. If the student happens to be from out of state, the scholarship will enable him or her to pay in-state tuition.
The pledge form gives you the option of having your name listed on this page along with the total amount pledged by all.
Once the event is completed, I’ll email you with the link to a UNT page where you can pay your pledge with a credit card.
Thanks for supporting Jazz Studies at UNT!
