Small Endowment in Scottish Studies
The generous endowment from Marion Alice Small to support a Scottish studies program at the university will enhance the Faculty's dedication to multidisciplinary research and teaching. As well as a Scottish studies scholarship for a graduate student, the fund will sustain a faculty fellowship in Scottish studies (the current Scottish Studies Fellowship recipient is Patrick Rysiew) and an annual public lecture delivered to the St. Andrews and Caledonian Society of Victoria. In addition, the endowment will provide for the acquisition of materials to support Scottish studies at the University of Victoria's McPherson Library.
