London, Dec 16 (IANS) Hollywood actor Alec Baldwin is making a $1 million donation to his college.
The “30 Rock” star is creating the Alec Baldwin Scholarship fund to benefit low income students who want to attend the Tisch School of the Arts at the New York University, reports contactmusic.com.

“The support I got from Tisch made it possible for me to become an actor and to have a career in this business. It’s important to give back to those institutions that give us such opportunities, and I encourage anyone to look into supporting their alma mater,” he said.

The first scholarships will be given in September 2010, with the beneficiaries named Alec Baldwin Drama Scholars.

Eligible candidates must have good academic standing and demonstrate the need for financial assistance.
