Valued at approximately $25, 000, the award is the largest ever received by an IU student. The foundation was created by Edward Rudd, successful dealer in gas water heaters. The 19-year-old singer came to IU in the fall of 1950 on a full Kiwani& Aid-to-Youth. scholarship. She is studying with Anna Kaskas, associate professor of music and former Metropolitan Opera singer. The Ruud award provides for New York living expenses, tuition in voide and piano, an allowance and a weekly ticket to the Metropolitan performances. It includes also future training in dancing, ballet, stage deportment, coaching in opera and concert technique and languages.
