The McLeod-Jourdin Award
is an endowment from Mr. George McLeod of Calgary, matched by a contribution
from the Noble Foundation of Admore, Oklahoma. The prize, officially referred
to as The Carl McLeod & Art Jourdin Award in Regional and Urban Planning, has provided for an annual student prize in RUP since 1992. The Award is intended to be funded in perpetuity through annual earnings of a trust established by the Donors on behalf of the University of Saskatchewan. The value of the Award will be determined from time to time, based upon the University practices regarding trust value preservation, and is presently estimated at approximately $1,000 annually. Selection for the Award is based on a completed project or paper. Applicants for the Award may include individual students, or groups of students, full-time in RUP, who submit an urban design project, or research paper in urban, regional or community planning. A Selection Committee usually comprising representatives of the RUP Program Committee, APCPS,
and the City of Saskatoon, determine the winning candidate. All competition entries must be submitted to the RUP Chair in three copies. Only urban design entries involving art work are allowed to be submitted on single panel. The RUP Program does not commit itself to grant the Award if no deserving
submissions are made in a particular year. The deadline for submissions
of entries in the McLeod-Jourdin Award competition is the last working
day of March in each academic year. Award presentation takes place in the spring. |
The Fraser - Gatrell Memorial Scholarship
has been endowed in memory of two Saskatchewan community planners
who were tragically killed in northern Saskatchewan in 1993. The late Darren
Gatrell was also our student, graduating from the RUP Program in 1992. The Fraser - Gatrell Memorial Scholarship Award is intended to be funded for fifteen years through annual earnings of a trust established by the Donors on behalf of the University of Saskatchewan. The value of the Scholarship has been established at $1,200, based upon the University practices regarding trust value preservation. Selection for the Award is based on a completed project or paper dealing with planning or development in Canada, north of the 53rd parallel, on overall achievement of the applicants, and on their community involvement. Applicants for the Scholarship award may include individual or groups of students in their third or fourth year, full-time in RUP, who submit an urban design project, or research paper in urban, regional or community planning in Northern Canada. Selection Committee for the Award comprises one representative each of the Dean of the College of Arts and Science, of the RUP Program Committee, and of APCPS, and it is the Selection Committee that determines the winning candidate. All competition entries must be submitted to the RUP Chair in three copies. The RUP Program does not commit itself to grant the Award if no deserving submissions are made in a particular year. The deadline for submissions of entries in the Fraser-Gatrell Memorial Scholarship Award is the last working day of March in each academic year. Award presentation takes place in the spring.
