- Established by her husband Ron Hector and the Young family, this bursary honours the memory of beloved University of Winnipeg professor Dr. Mary Young. It will be awarded to an Indigenous student enrolled in Graduate Studies at The University of Winnipeg who demonstrates financial need. Mary was a strong proponent for encouraging students to continue their education beyond their undergraduate studies, a path she sought herself. Mary was the driving force behind the creation and establishment of the Aboriginal Student Services Centre in 2004, providing culturally relevant Indigenous programming, as well as space and support for students, their friends and their families. This bursary continues this legacy by encouraging and supporting Indigenous students as they pursue a higher education.
