The Liberace Foundation and Columbia College Chicago have awarded merit-based scholarships to six of the college's outstanding theater students. This is the third year the Foundation has supported Columbia students.
Competing in a field of their peers, these aspiring theater professionals, were judged to represent "the highest degree of excellence in their particular area of the theater" by a jury comprised faculty from their department.
Two of the students - Meghan Murphy and Lindsay Naas - are receiving the award for their second year, having been named Liberace Scholars in 2005. Ebony Campbell, Leslie Adelina Bradshaw, Eric Turner and Daisica L. Smith join them this year as all six carry the honorific of Liberace Scholars. The students, who hail from varied backgrounds, are concentrating in three areas of theater arts.
