Rothchild Summer Stipend for Music Study
Monday, March 28
 
The Music Department of Reed College will sponsor a stipend of up to $1750 for music study during the summer of 2011. More than one might be awarded if the amount needed for each is less than the maximum. Each applicant should submit a proposal for a project that will culminate early in the fall 2011 semester in a presentation open to the Reed community. The deadline for submitting applications is Monday, March 28.

Eligible recipients are students who have been formally enrolled in a music class (including Music 101, 104, 105, 107, 108, and 109) during the current academic year and who will be returning full time for the next academic year, 2011–12.

Your application should consist of the following parts, which should be sent via email to Virginia Hancock, Morgan Luker, David Schiff, and Denise VanLeuven:
1. A description of the proposed project (no more than 500 words)
2. A personal statement that describes your interest in and qualifications for carrying out the project (no more than 500 words)
3. An approximate budget and timetable
4. If the project involves lessons or participation in some kind of organized workshop or class, evidence that you have been accepted by the teacher or into the workshop or class
5. A letter of recommendation from someone who knows you and the proposed project, but not one of the members of the music department listed above. However, in preparing the application, you may consult anyone you wish, including members of the department.
