On June 30, 2011, UMW received a gift of more than $90,000 from the estate of John Allison Gow of Houston, Tex. Mr. Gow worked in theater for more than 30 years, was a well-respected member of the Houston theatrical community, and served as a mentor to many aspiring students. During his lifetime, Mr. Gow was a regular contributor to the UMW Keith Belli Memorial Scholarship originally established in 1997 as tribute to Professor Belli’s five years of service to Mary Washington. The Belli scholarship is awarded annually to outstanding theater students. This gift announcement is from the Office of Advancement and University Relations.
