The purpose of the Advancement Board is to support UNT College of Music in achieving
its mission to serve our diverse musical culture with excellence, integrity, and imagination.
Members advance the mission by identifying enhancement opportunities and connecting
UNT College of Music with resources that will ensure its future success.
The Board meets three times each year to partner with the COM Dean and Development
team, working to accomplish strategic priorities: philanthropy, partnership, and advocacy.
Members increase public and private financial support for the college by making annual
contributions, and by taking leadership roles in the solicitation of major gifts.
The Board leverages professional networks to establish new applied learning experiences
for students, including internships, music industry projects, and corporate partnerships.
Advancement Board members serve as ambassadors for the college within communities
of influence, increasing UNT College of Music's visibility as America's largest public
university music program and educator of internationally-celebrated musicians.
