Peter N. Affleck Memorial Graduate Scholarship in Forest Policy
COFI members and staff were saddened and shocked at the untimely passing of Peter Affleck, Vice President Forestry, on May 1, 2006. In memory of Peter, the Council of Forest Industries joins with many others to establish the Peter N. Affleck Memorial Graduate Scholarship in Forest Policy at the University of B.C.
Peter was recognized across Canada as a dedicated, effective and highly respected advocate for the forest sector. Providing assistance to young people in developing knowledge and a passion for good forest policy is something we are confident will be considered a fitting tribute to Peter.
It is now up to Peter's friends and colleagues to join with us in establishing the fund that will support the provision of annual scholarships to forestry students at UBC in his name.
UBC has now formally established the scholarship fund. Please consider a contribution today as it will ensure ever increasing support for the education of young BC foresters.
Cheques should be made out to:
UBC - Peter N. Affleck Scholarship Fund
Mail to:
Dan Worsley
Associate Director

The University of British Columbia
Suite 500 - 5950 University Boulevard

Contributions will be gratefully received from corporations, associations, governments and individuals.
