In addition, students with annual family incomes of up to $30,000 will receive enough aid to completely cover their tuition costs. “It is imperative that the university do more to help lower- and middle-income Texans afford a UT Austin education,” says UT President Gregory Fenves. “This is an investment in our students, their families and the people of Texas.” Funding for these awards comes from a recurring $5 million in new funds for campus from the Available University Fund (AUF).

  • Annual Operating Budget 2011-2012 History of Round Rock
    Annual Operating Budget 2011-2012 History of Round Rock ...Our Story Settlers began arriving in the area in the late 1830s and built Kenney Fort on the south side of Brushy Creek. In 1850, the original town, called Brushy, was established on the north side of the creek near the “round rock.” This historic table-shaped rock still marks a Brushy Creek crossing of the famed Chisholm Trail. In 1854, Brushy was renamed Round Rock. The town served as a stop on the Chisholm Trail through- out the 1860s and the early 1870s. In 1876, the residents moved the town about one mile due east to take advantage of the newly constructed International and Great Northern Railroad line (later know as the Missouri Pacific) which bypassed the old town. Round Rock was officially incorporated in 1913. Today, the Old Town section still contains many historic structures and is the centerpiece of an evolving, his- torical, recreational and commercial area. www.roundrocktexas.gov City of Round Rock Annual Budget For the Fiscal Year OCTOBER 1, 2011 • SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 CITY LEADERSHIP: ALAN McGRAW Mayor CARLOS T.

  • Dražen Vrdoljak – Čovjek Koji Je Utemeljio I Formatirao Rock Kritiku
    Dražen Vrdoljak – Čovjek koji je utemeljio i formatirao rock kritiku Dražen Vrdoljak rođen je 1. travnja 1951. u Splitu gdje završava gimnaziju, a 1969. dolazi u Zagreb na studij ekonomije. Od 1970. djeluje kao glazbeni novinar i kritičar, najprije u omladinskom, ubrzo u dnevnom tisku (Slobodna Dalmacija, Vjesnik, Večernji list) te tjednim listovima (Nedjeljna Dalmacija, Telegram, Oko, VUS, Studio). U njima prati pop, rock, jazz i zabavnu glazbu kritičkim diskursom koji često protuslovi tadašnjem samoproklamiranom sustavu vrijednosti na domaćoj glazbenoj sceni. Vrdoljakov medijski rad istodobno se širi na radio i televiziju (RTV Zagreb, 1971) gdje se u tisućama emisija, kao i u tisku, zalaže za jednake kriterije u procjenjivanju domaće i svjetske glazbene produkcije. Iako mu često prigovaraju da favorizira inozemnu glazbu, o njoj nikad ne prestaje informirati, među ostalim i prijevodima Ilustrirane rock enciklopedije (1978) i Ilustrirane jazz enciklopedije (1980). Blisko povezan s fenomenima koji su 70-ih mijenjali sliku popularne glazbe bivše države i projektima izvan dnevnog novinarstva (produkcija prvog albuma Buldožera 1975 te 1981. s Darkom Glavanom knjiga o Bijelom dugmetu pod naslovom Ništa mudro), Dražen Vrdoljak sudjeluje u organizaciji glazbenih manifestacija (Muzički biennale, festival Jazz Fair, YURM, programi Univerzijade ‘87, Eurosong ‘90, Croatian Music Aid), klupskih programa u vrijeme uzleta novoga vala (GSC Kulušić i Lapidarij) i mnogih koncerata (uključujući Rolling Stonese 1998. u Zagrebu).
