The fortieth anniversary celebration at Loyalist College on March 27 included the announcement of a $40,000 endowment fund to provide a bursary for a student attending Loyalist College – and it was established by Erin Davis, a 1982 Radio Broadcasting graduate. Erin is the popular co-host of the morning show with 98.1 CHFI Radio in Toronto.
Her donation of $20,000 will be matched by the provincial government’s Ontario Trust for Student Support (OTSS) program and will provide an annual bursary of $1,000 for The Erin Davis – Women in Media Award, created to celebrate women in broadcasting.
Joining in the celebration (L-R) are Margaret Werkhoven, Vice-Chair of the Loyalist Board of Governors; Jessica Bourque, President, Loyalist Student Government; Maureen Piercy, Loyalist College President; June Surgey, Chair, Loyalist College Foundation; Erin Davis, and Dan Hawkins, incoming President, Loyalist Student Government.
