It is in honor of Caroline Andrew, Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences from 1998 to 2005 and professor at the School of Political Studies, that the faculty is offering annual bursaries to students registered full-time in an undergraduate program in the Faculty of Social Sciences and whose candidacy for international exchange has been retained. The honoree thanks the Government of Ontario who helped create this fund through its generous matching contributions.
