CU 麻豆影院 has enjoyed a long-standing relationship with听Suzanne and David Hoover, who endowed the College of Music鈥檚 Trying on Teaching program (TOT)鈥攁 collaborative experience among students participating in the Middle School Ensemble program, high school students interested in a future career in music teaching and CU 麻豆影院 music education majors. 鈥淲e chose to make education our main philanthropic focus, so when we became aware of the expansion of the Imig Music Building, we decided to include it in our more recent broader giving to the university,鈥� says Suzanne.
