Dr. Otto G. Tucker Award
This award was established by friends of Dr. Otto Tucker (1923-2015) in honour of his many contributions to the cultural fabric of Newfoundland and Labrador. It also recognizes in particular his keen interest in young people’s education and his desire to ignite their passion for the history and heritage of their own families and communities. Born in Winterton, Trinity Bay, Dr. Tucker was a graduate of Memorial University of Newfoundland, the University of Alberta and the University of Toronto. He was a founding member of the Newfoundland Wessex Society which was formed to promote and appreciate our province’s English-Wessex ancestry. Dr. Tucker received many honours, including the Order of Canada, the Order of Newfoundland and Labrador, the Heritage Award of the Newfoundland Historical Society and an honorary degree from Memorial University. Valued at a portion of the income on the endowment, it will be awarded annually to an undergraduate or graduate student at Memorial University who is enrolled in a Bachelor of Arts or Master of Arts program with a major in History. Preference will be given to students who have completed courses in Newfoundland History and/or demonstrated an interest in Newfoundland History. Students must meet the minimum academic requirements for an award as defined by the university. If awarded to an undergraduate student, the award will be granted by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards. If awarded to a graduate student, it will be awarded by the Dean, School of Graduate Studies. In either case the recommendation will come from the Head, Department of History.
William and Mathilde Walters Memorial Scholarship
This scholarship was established by a generous donation from the Estate of Mathilde M. Walters. Her husband, William C. Walters, was from Champneys East and after serving in the British Navy throughout World War II, attended Memorial University of Newfoundland as an undergraduate before completing his medical training at McGill University. Always grateful for the educational opportunities made available to him after the War, the hope was that this scholarship would help to provide other students from Trinity East with similar opportunities.  Valued at $3,000 per year, it will be awarded annually to a full time student enrolled in any undergraduate program in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences who resided in a community in the former provincial electoral district of Trinity North (excluding Clarenville) at the time of their admission to Memorial University. Financial need may be considered. The recipient must meet the minimum academic requirements for a scholarship as defined by the University.  This scholarship will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards on the recommendation of the Dean, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences.
