Jacob-Hannemann Music Scholarship The Jacob-Hannemann Music Scholarship was created upon the death of Nicholas and Sedella Jacob. Their love for the arts, especially music, and their attendance at various University of Wisconsin Fox Valley Extension events was the perfect formula for this scholarship. Both of them played the piano and that musical talent was passed down to their daughter Patricia Hannemann. Patricia studied with Irving Schwerke in Appleton and received her Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Music from The Manhattan School of Music in New York City. We are pleased to honor this music heritage and hope the scholarship will enable others to progress and further their musical talents. One $750 non-renewable scholarship award, payable after successful completion of fall semester.
