Highlight: Vera J. Blaine Special Projects Fund
The Vera J. Blaine Special Projects Fund was established in honor of Vera J. Blaine to support creative projects in dance. Since 2002, the fund has awarded an average of $1,700 per year in small grants, annually providing five to six undergraduate and graduate students resources for their senior projects, MFA projects, and travel to study abroad and to present at conferences. Students gain experience with proposal writing, budget planning, event organization and entrepreneurialism; with the support of the fund, students move beyond the borders of the campus with their creative and scholarly research.
