Cleveland L. Howard Choral Music Fund

The purpose of the Fund is to provide financial support for concert choir programs at UNH, recognizing that music is a universal language that crosses cultural, academic, and geographical boundaries. Specifically, income from the fund will be used to support: A) activities of the concert choir that foster exposure to music of varying cultural traditions; B) choral outreach workshops and performances that enhance the choral music experience of choir members and that encourage greater choral participation from non-music majors; C) student-based research in African American choral music. The Chair of the Department of Music shall be responsible for selecting the activities to be funded each year and for administering all expenditures from this fund. The Chair shall be responsible for developing appropriate procedures for students to apply for research funds, and shall make a minimum of one student research award every four years.
