What We’re Fundraising For...
We are fundraising for the Allison McCarty Memorial Scholarship. Allison joined Liberal Arts Council as a writer for LAC’s The Liberator magazine in Fall 2018. She was a Philosophy and Journalism dual-major from Cedar Park, TX and aspired to a career in radio journalism. Her passions included the 1970s, classic rock, HBO docudramas, stroopwafels, mockumentaries by Christopher Guest, writing for Afterglow, and her weekly radio show on KVRX.
Allison served as the Editor-in-Chief for The Liberator and as an Executive Board member for LAC for the 2019-2020 school year until she passed away in Spring 2020. In memory of Allison, her contributions, her quirks, her laughter, her impact on the UT Liberal Arts Council, we are creating a scholarship to help students who commute to and from UT’s campus. Even though Allison’s light has been dimmed, we hope that this scholarship will help ensure that it is never extinguished.
And with that in mind, today you can help support The Liberal Arts Council and hundreds of other programs and organizations across campus by making a gift. Your generous support can help them to unlock extra funding.
