Professor Scott Lynch Memorial Scholarship

This scholarship was established by generous donations from the late Scott Lynch’s wife, Kim Lynch, and two daughters, Taggarty Norris and Kellie Patrick, as well as family, friends and colleagues. It honors the impact Scott had as a professor of Economics at Memorial University of Newfoundland and his deep passion for teaching and mentoring countless students during his 34 years as a professor. His commitment to working with youth extended beyond the University, coaching girls and boys basketball teams for over 40 years. This scholarship aims to continue his dedication to student development and success both in and out of the classroom. Valued at a portion of the income on the endowment, it will be awarded annually to any undergraduate student who is majoring in Economics. The recipient must meet the minimum academic requirements for scholarship standing as defined by Memorial University of Newfoundland. This scholarship will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries, and Awards on the recommendation of the Head, Department of Economics.
