Jared Lane Receives Gingery-Mack Scholarship

2016 Sep 8

Jared Lane, a freshman at Bob Jones University majoring in church music, was one of 8 students to receive the Gingery-Mack Music Scholarship, a scholarship fund that provides financial aid to young Christian musicians at BJU. Lane, a resident of Hartsel, received the scholarship for his abilities in church music.

"Jared has fine musical potential with a personality that simply took over the audition room," says Dr. Dan Turner, president of the Gingery-Mack Music Scholarship Fund and director of instrumental activities at BJU. "His ebullient approach to his music combined with his obvious leadership will bring him some wonderful opportunities. We are thrilled that he accepted a Gingery-Mack Scholarship to attend BJU."

Founded in 2014 by alumni, friends, and faculty of BJU, the scholarship fund, through competitive auditions and interviews, seeks to identify promising young musical artists and nurture their artistic growth in the same way that professors Gail and Alice Gingery and Warren Mack did for past generations of BJU music students. The recipients cover the entire spectrum of musical arts and come from all parts of the United States to study with the faculty of BJU.
