Fayetteville, NC, April 2, 2001 - The Tenth Annual Miss Fayetteville State University Scholarship Pageant will be held on Saturday, April 21, 2001 at 8:00pm in FSU's Felton J. Capel Arena. This year's pageant promises to be entertaining and exciting!

Miss Fayetteville State University, Dionne Gilmore, a senior from Boston, Massachusetts, will relinquish her crown to one of the eight articulate, beautiful, and poised young women competing to be the next Miss FSU.
