Manda Ruth Smith Bursary
This fund has been established by Alison & Colin Smith, grandparents of Manda Ruth Smith. Manda was born and raised in West Vancouver, then chose to attend UVic where she was very happy. She was in her fourth year and hoping to go on to law school, when she was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor in 2003 just before her final exams.
Thanks to the good offices of David C. Clode, Executive Director of Student and Ancillary Services at UVic, and because she was a very bright student, the University granted her the B.A. Degree that year.
