At the Spring 2005 Awards Banquet, Band alum Thomas H. Miller presented Todd McCready with the first Miller “All-American” Marching Band Scholarship. It is special because it represents the Band Department’s only full-ride scholarship. McCready is a junior from Indianapolis, an outstanding euphonium player, past president of Kappa Kappa Psi and Head of Operations. The scholarship is designed to reward a student in their junior or senior year for their contributions to Bands. The scholarship recipient will continue to be announced each spring.
