Glenfraser Endowment Fund

The Glenfraser Endownment Fund was established in 2009 with an innitial $25,000 investment by Professor Emeritus Barry Truax and his partner Dr. Guenther Krueger, a doctoral graduate in Special Arrangements at 間眅埶AV. Their generous donation has grown significantly over the years funding two awards - the R.M.Schafer Soundscape Award for outstanding work in the field of sound ecology, and the Glenfraser Research Award for eligible research and travel expenses aimed at both undergraduate or graduate students pursuing work in sound studies. In 2015, Barry and Guenther also made the most significant of contributions: a to 間眅埶AV that ultimately founded an Endowed Professorship in Sound Studies in 2015 with the appointment of Dr. Milena Droumeva in the School of Communication.
