Hello Tennessee Librarians, We wanted to extend our deepest gratitude to all of our colleagues, alumni, and friends - your generous contributions, combined with those of the SIS faculty, got the Dr. Bill Scholarship Fund to the endowment level by his 80th birthday! Thank you everyone! From: Pecor II, Joe <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Thursday, October 24, 2019 2:49 PM To: [log in to unmask]; Susan L. Jennings <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: William C. Robinson Scholarship Fund -- A Challenge Thank you for sharing Susan. A quick update: We are just two days out from Dr. Bill's 80th birthday, and we are less than $3,000 from our goal of fully funding and endowing the new Dr. William C. Robinson Scholarship Fund! UTSIS faculty have also agreed to match donations dollar-for-dollar, up to $6,000, until his birthday. If you're looking to double the impact of your donation and help support future MSIS students' educations, now's the time!

Robinson Scholarship Fund -- A Challenge Please share far and wide! For many of us that graduated from the University of Tennessee School of Information Sciences, Dr. Bill Robinson made a lasting impact on us personally and professionally. A lover of books, students... and trains... Dr. Bill contributed to the profession and education of many librarians across the state of Tennessee and beyond. I was privileged to have him as a mentor and as a friend. We are trying to get a scholarship established in his honor at UT's SIS program. Won't you help us today raise enough money to endow this scholarship so that his legacy at SIS will live on? I am challenging my graduation class of 2007 to help me raise $2007.00 collectively to do our part in endowing this scholarship. I would like to challenge other alums to challenge their graduating class to do the same. But, you don't have to be an alum to support this worthy cause. Please consider donating today! https://t.e2ma.net/message/p83bmc/9bsc4z<https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Ft.e2ma.net%2Fmessage%2Fp83bmc%2F9bsc4z%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR1wFk_xv7l3MYpuQ75GVcIQb4Sgn0q_L5hZExTCvaM9Icz27d-tykRyQxo&h=AT30uw9VF8ODsl1SvpeRPg7w84gVy_j7wEhhrjv3mQGrrjNwxnpgH8Bnvo59iEbqw-RVseC1nL6bNYwtqiYCrvWmyzHIkK-B_6ZsXnRDtIeX5_WR9_SRvR9BCTiIIpRYJ_8ehXeobUuuqck-1qubBcdMjuEiGtOa1T8LmyY9Pswqri663XDgvarWIeBBH8LQZgRkCgjNaRJuCD_C-cJ2yCu-wWWlccvGAMh0GC4dBDxT5im3yyWYx-ukoa53hO1RlsPvlMERVD7XUSjbooqrx4SXgxIfAjBbYiiPQWoqA8GR_2tVa4eAXcfGDjUopJlYXmR43kBju6zAUsE_UtKnr1QyPB-_zLr0nBcLIN_jbnRhL_p8ITQpCNGH5SealsOXbKNLcNAO1As5YOSVW5W8XQ1m5lfRHdyh98RGElHMXXA> Susan Jennings Class of 2007 UTK School of Information Sciences
