Union endows new MSUB scholarship
BillingsGazette.com: "Members of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees Union Local 240 recently contributed $17,500 to endow a new scholarship fund at the Montana State University-Billings Foundation. The IATSE Local 240 Endowed Scholarship is open to all theatre majors at MSU-Billings, with preference given to IATSE members, their children, or spouses. Recipients must have financial need and at least a 2.5 cumulative GPA. The first $500 IATSEU Local 240 scholarship will be available to students for academic year 2007-08."
I wonder if the money will come out of the dues they pay or if they will have fundraisers. Its a great cause to support either way.
