G. Clarence Elliott Fellowship
The G. Clarence Elliott Fellowship is an endowment fund that provides an annual graduate fellowship to a full-time University of Manitoba graduate student in either a master's or doctoral program.
Friends and colleagues of Mr. G. Clarence Elliott established an endowment fund to support a graduate fellowship at the University of Manitoba in 1994. The fellowship is in honour of Mr. G. Clarence Elliot former Vice-President, and Treasurer of The Great-West Life Assurance Company who also made his mark as a real estate pioneer.
The Manitoba Scholarships and Bursaries Initiative has made a contribution to this fund. The fund will be used to support multiple initiatives for fellowship recipients, a portion of the fund will be used to reimburse expenses for a celebratory dinner, certificate, and annual update of the G. Clarence Elliott Fellowship Plaque located by the Faculty of Graduate Studies office.
