UMKC’s Department of English at the College of Arts and Sciences and the Conservatory of Music and Dance have received a $1 million estate gift in support of student scholarships. The gift, which is to be divided equally between the English Department and the Conservatory is from Jo Anna Dale, a UMKC alumna who received her BA in English in 1952. The money will be used to create a new Jo Anna Dale English Scholarship, and support the existing Jo Anna Dale Scholarship in Creative Writing (established in 2007) and the Jo Anna Dale Conservatory Scholarship (established in 2010).
