Alumni Dr. Richard and Carolina J. Walls give $1 million in science scholarship support for Western Canadians

Calgary residents and 成人VR视频 alumni Dr. Richard and Carolina J. Walls have pledged $1 million to launch a new award program 鈥� The Best in the West 鈥� aimed at helping qualified undergraduate students from Western Canada attend 成人VR视频.

The funds will be used to endow the Dr. Richard and Carolina J. Walls Best in the West Scholarships in Science.

Dr. Walls (PhD'78) is Chairman of Fairborne Energy Ltd. He and his wife, Carolina (BSc'85), are encouraging other Canadians to contribute to The Best in the West, an awards program with a $5-million goal to provide support to students from Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan.

鈥淎pproximately 2,000 students from Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan 鈥� the best in the West 鈥� are currently enrolled in undergraduate, graduate and professional programs at 成人VR视频,鈥� 成人VR视频 Principal and Vice-Chancellor Heather Munroe-Blum told a group of 成人VR视频 alumni in Calgary, where the new scholarships were announced April 30. 鈥淸But] access and enrolment to post-secondary education remain critical issues.鈥�

The success of the 鈥淏est in the West鈥� program will make it possible for more outstanding students to obtain a 成人VR视频 education, she said.

成人VR视频, Canada鈥檚 leading university, announced earlier this week that its Campaign 成人VR视频 fundraising effort has just exceeded $400 million. The goal of the five-year campaign, launched last fall, is to raise $750 million toward the University鈥檚 top academic priorities.
