Thanks to a generous and anonymous donor, the Liberal Arts College and the Department of Philosophy are pleased to announce a new in-course scholarship. The Thought Provoking Award will be awarded to the eligible student who submits the best essay that focuses on a contemporary social trend—such as political or cultural movements or currents—an essay that is deemed beneficial to public debate. The heads of the Liberal Arts College and the Department of Philosophy will together decide which submitted essay best meets these criteria, and the winning essay will be shared with the anonymous donor. To be eligible to submit an essay you must be a full-time undergraduate student with a minimum GPA of 3.30, and be enrolled in an Honours, or Major, or Minor program in either the Liberal Arts College or the Department of Philosophy. One faculty member should send a separate letter, stating simply that they nominate you for the award. The winner will receive one scholarship in the amount of $1,400. Essays and faculty nomination letters are due 10 May 2019, via email to the Liberal Arts College and the Department of Philosophy.
