The University of Texas Longhorn Alumni Band

2009-2010 Scholarships

Congratulations to the 2009 LHAB Scholarship designees! The recipients were announced at the LHB Spring Banquet on May 11.

The LHAB is honored to have awarded a new named scholarship this year: The Diane Gorzycki Memorial Scholarship. Diane Gorzycki had a very distinguished 30-year career as a Middle School Band Director. She received numerous prestigious honors and awards, including having previously served as Past-President of the Longhorn Alumni Band. After her passing a new middle school in Southwest Austin was recently named in her honor. Her scholarship, which is awarded to a music education major, will provide $2,500 to the recipient. Two other scholarships have increased their annual award to $2,000: The D. Harold Byrd Scholarship and The Moton Crockett Scholarship. All of the other named scholarship recipients receive $1,500. The general scholarship recipients receive $750.

Many thanks to the members of this year’s committee for their hard work: George Moxley, Julia Webber, Patsy Hejl, and Dr. Coral Noonan-Terry (chair). Special thanks to Lucas Horton for his continued work to ensure the integrity of the tabulation process.
