WHY COMMUNICATIONS, JOURNALISM, and POLITICAL SCIENCE?
Don, Colin, and Bas each make significant contributions in these fields. They believed in fact-based journalism, democratic engagement, and the value of public service.
With the current climate of 24-second news cycles and vast array of vehicles to which people turn as sources of information, this scholarship is intended to support critical thinking and fact-based journalism; and to support and encourage youth engagement in the political process.
The Jamieson Family Memorial Scholarship will support these ideals through annual financial support towards the post-secondary education of a new generation of community leaders. The scholarship embodies Bas Jamieson’s signature on-air sign off: “Do something nice for someone today. You’ll feel better for it.”
