Irene Jackson Music Fund [F20077]

A sum of approximately $37,600 having been bequeathed to the University by the late Mrs Irene Jackson, a graduate of the University, to enable the study of music at the University through teaching, performance and research to be extended to the music of the Indian Ocean region and of other Asian countries, the Irene Jackson Music Fund is established for that purpose. The fund is administered in accordance with the following regulations.

2. The name of Irene Jackson must be referred to in promoting projects supported by the fund.
