About this Award

This bursary fund was initiated at the end of the 2005-06 academic year by Kevin Wall during his tenure as vice- president (finance) of the Criminology Undergraduate Students Association. With leftover funds raised from student levies every year, it is the CSA's wish to give back to the Criminology students who support their mandate throughout the year through these fees. This bursary is not only for those who demonstrate a financial need but who also get involved or excel in extra-curricular activities. The Criminology Undergraduate Students Association thanks the Government of Ontario who helped create this fund through its generous matching contributions.
