The DePauw University School of Music has announced plans to invest $10 million in scholarship funds for undergraduate music students. The university says the scholarships, which will be awarded over the next five years, will build on the success of the school’s 21st Century Musician initiative.

DePauw says the 21CM initiative also includes the 21CMposium, a conference featuring various musicians and other industry leaders.
