- The Elvis Presley scholarship at the University of Memphis
(Business Perspectives; June 22, 2002)
In 1995 with an initial endowment of $25,000, the Elvis Presley Endowed Scholarship Fund was created by Elvis Presley Enterprises ( and at the recommendation of Priscilla Presley) to assist students in the College of Communication and Fine Arts at The University of Memphis. Specifically, the scholarship aids those majoring in the areas of music, theatre, and film. According to Dr. Richard R. Ranta, Dean of the College of Communication and Fine Arts, "The scholarship was established to help students pay for some of the costs of attending college in areas where Elvis made his mark--acting, music, television and film, and it is a permanent lasting memorial to Elvis."

According to former Elvis crony Lamar Fike, Elvis stopped dating "Mod Squad" star Peggy Lipton because she kept trying to get him to join the church. "One day, in L.A., we got in the limousine and went down to the Scientology center on Sunset, and Elvis went in and talked to them," Fike said in "Elvis Aaron Presley: Revelations from the Memphis Mafia," one of several sources who say that Presley didn't like Scientology. "We waited in the car, but apparently they started doing all these charts and crap for him. Elvis came out and said, 'F - - - those people! There's no way I'll ever get involved with that son-of-a-bitchin' group. All they want is my money.' . . . He stayed away from Scientology like it was a cobra. He'd s - - t a brick to see how far Lisa Marie's gotten into it." ...
