Dick Clark taught at the University of Tennessee from 1974 to 1976. During this time Mr. Clark lead a team a students in Masaya, Nicaragua. They arrived just after the 1972 Nicaragua earthquake that decimated most of Managua. There they worked with the local government and citizens to plan and rebuild some of what was lost. Their efforts were supported by Mick Jagger who, with the Rolling Stones donated $300,000 to build 3000 homes south of Managua. Most of the money was raised during the Rolling Stones Pacific Tour 1973.
