On January 28, the Department honoured OT1 student Priscilla Leung, selected by her classmates for the Colleen Tate Memorial Bursary. Criteria were established by the family and friends of Colleen to award a first-year student who exemplifies the qualities for which Colleen was much admired:

• Friendly, outgoing and caring
• Supportive of others, and
•  A good student

Each year, students in the first year of the MScOT program are asked to consider nominating  a classmate who exemplifies these qualities. Nominees are considered by faculty members, who select the recipient.

Priscilla’s name will be added to the award plaque in the OT Main Office at 500 University.
