Redeemer graduate Joel Faber '10 is set to receive a Canada Graduate Scholarship worth $17,500. The Canada Graduate Scholarship is funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRCC), which seeks “to develop research skills and assist in the training of highly qualified personnel by supporting students in the social sciences and humanities who demonstrate a high standard of achievement in undergraduate and early graduate studies.“ Applicants for the scholarship “must have achieved a first-class average, as determined by [their] university, in each of the last two years of full-time study.” Faber will be taking his Master’s degree in English at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia.
