Jonathon Naylor Editor Hard work and virtues will help three Northlands College students further their education. Carrie Wilcox, Lynette Ballantyne and Terry Custer, students at the Creighton campus, recently accepted distinguished scholarships. Wilcox, who is in the university program, received the Northlands College Board of Directors Scholarship of $750. It's the result of her having the highest overall academic achievement of any student in the four regions served by Northlands College. Wilcox also accepted the Northlands College Scholarship of $500 in recognition of her academic success, class leadership and community involvement. Ballantyne, who is in the continuing care program, accepted the Grade 12 Scholarship of $500 for having the highest average in the region core Grade 12 classes. Custer, in the university program, became the first recipient of the Kelli Eyres Scholarship of $764. The scholarship goes to an aboriginal student who shows compassion for others, helps others without being asked and is fun-loving and energetic. It honours the memory of Kelli Eyres, who was the IT worker at the Creighton campus prior to his passing last May. Money for the Eyres scholarship was contributed by staff of the Creighton campus.
