PEGNL Scholarship Winners  

A number of PEGNL scholarships were recently awarded to Memorial University students.

The Engineering and Geoscience Scholarships for Excellence were awarded to Stephen Brown, Matthew MacInnis, Steven Greeley and Dan Hatcher. These awards are made to provincial residents who have completed high school in this province and are enrolled in an engineering or geoscience program at Memorial University. It is funded by contributions to the PEGNL Endowment Fund by members of the professions.

The A. A. Brait Scholarship was established jointly by PEGNL and Aliant Inc. in recognition of the late A. A. (Tony) Brait, P.Eng. This scholarship, valued at $1,000, is presented to a university student in engineering or geoscience for high academic achievement. Memorial student Gillian Langor was awarded this scholarship.

In recognition of National Engineering and Geoscience Week, PEGNL has established two scholarships for Memorial students. Valued at $1,000 each, they are awarded for high scholastic achievement, based on the recommendation of the university. The recipients this year are Mark Ballard and Megan Laracy.

The Awards for Excellence went to Donna Marsden [Engineering] and Joel Koops [Geoscience]. The Anniversary Award went to Michael Phillips.
