\"AustinClarksville, TN<\/strong> – In 2014, Austin Peay State University established the John W. Moseley Media Room in the Dunn Center, but nearly three years later, a related scholarship honoring the late professor had not been endowed.<\/p>\n

\u201cI found out we were short about $500.00,\u201d Dr. Mike Gotcher, former chair of the Austin Peay State University Department of Communication, said. \u201cI made a donation, and I contacted Bikers Who Care, who also helped out, and we got it endowed.\u201d<\/p>\n

APSU late professor John Moseley<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The new John W. Moseley Communication Scholarship Endowment will be awarded annually to an APSU student majoring in communication. It will also honor the legacy of a popular and respected faculty member.<\/p>\n

\u201cJohn had been so important to our department, and he had such an impact on our students, and he was such a kind, caring person,\u201d Gotcher said. \u201cWe didn\u2019t want his memory to be lost.\u201d<\/p>\n

After working in the music and broadcast industries for nearly four decades, Moseley received his bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s degrees at Austin Peay. Upon completion of his degrees in 1994 and \u201996 respectively, he became a faculty member and served the University for 18 years until his death on February 9th, 2014.<\/p>\n

Moseley was known for his many talents, but he is most remembered as a cherished colleague and friend. He served as an associate professor of communication at Austin Peay, teaching courses in broadcast media, audio and video production, digital photojournalism and sports broadcasting. Moseley oversaw numerous student productions of high school graduations and sporting events, APSU commencements and the broadcast of many NCAA sports events, including APSU athletics and Ohio Valley Conference (OVC) games.<\/p>\n

Moseley also enjoyed a long career as a studio musician, including playing keyboard and guitar for The Royal Guardsmen, whose 1966 single \u201cSnoopy vs. the Red Baron\u201d became a national hit. He produced more than 30 popular record albums as an audio engineer for Warner Brothers records, Catfish Bay Studios in Nashville, Cavern Sound in Independence, Missouri, as well as One-Step Up Studios in Los Angeles. Moseley was nominated for a Grammy for his audio production work and voted on the Grammys for 16 years.<\/p>\n

He served several civic organizations, including the Special Olympics, Camp Rainbow, Bikers Who Care and Buddy Ball. Moseley also was the recipient of the Tennessee Higher Education Commission\u2019s Harold Love Outstanding Community Service Award in 2012.        <\/p>\n

\u201cI would encourage those who knew John to continue supporting this scholarship,\u201d Gotcher said. \u201cOur goal is to have that grow so we can extend it beyond one scholarship to many scholarships.\u201d<\/p>\n
