Rex E. Rood Memorial Scholarship
This scholarship has been established in memory of Rex E. Rood by his wife and daughter. Although not a musician or performer, Mr Rood had a deep love and knowledge of classical music which he shared with his family and which formed an integral part of his life. He enjoyed orchestral arrangements, choral works and solo voices, but was particular fond of operatic tenors.
This scholarship, valued at $2000.00 per year, is to be awarded to a student in any year of the Bachelor of Music degree program who demonstrates musical potential and academic excellence. Preference will be given to a student whose principal applied study is voice, in particular a tenor, bass or baritone. The award may be renewed for the duration of the student's program, up to a maximum of five years, if the recipient continues to excel musically and maintains scholarship standing. The scholarship will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards, on the recommendation of the Director, School of Music.
