New Scholarship Created

A scholarship has been created for former longtime faculty member and colleague, Geraldine Fowle, who died on October 8, 2011.  Geraldine was a key member of the faculty of the Department of Art and Art History at UMKC for more than 45 years.  To honor the contributions of this outstanding educator, the Geraldine E. Fowle Art History Scholarship Fund was recently established with a lead gift from Geraldine’s sister, Rosemary Deen of Stone Ridge, New York.  In addition, generous gifts have been received from many of her colleagues and friends here at UMKC and Kansas City.  The fund will provide scholarship support to deserving undergraduate or graduate students who are seeking a degree in Art History at UMKC.  We hope you will join with your colleagues and support this special scholarship fund for the students Geraldine dedicated her life to educating and serving at UMKC.  For questions, please contact Phil Watson, Director of Development and Gift Planning at the College of Arts & Sciences, at 108 Scofield Hall, ext. 5776, or watsonp@umkcfoundation.org.
