ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï Education student Adam Campbell (BKIN ’12) is this year’s winner of the annual IODE Nova Scotia Annie G. Murray Memorial Scholarship.

Presented on Thursday, February 7, 2013, the $1,000 scholarship started in 1986 after Murray’s death and was awarded to a second-year student at the Nova Scotia Teachers’ College. Since the College closed and Murray attended ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï University, it was passed by the Provincial Chapter of Nova Scotia IODE (now known as IODE Nova Scotia) that the scholarship be awarded to a student enrolled in the second-year of the Bachelor of Education program at ÍøÆسԹÏ. Murray was a dedicated teacher, a loyal IODE member and was involved in many community activities. She was a graduate of Ladies Seminary, Class of 1911, and was Valedictorian for her graduating class.
