Celebrate 150 鈥 Give To The Future will raise funds to support the gift of education that will continue to transform lives, inspire innovation and push boundaries. Together we will make history and support what is coming and truly exciting. We will celebrate 150 years of excellence, break new ground and remove barriers.
Dr John Byron is a researcher, a celebrated crime author, and a generous donor to the Student Emergency Fund. It鈥檚 his way of giving back; he was once a recipient of emergency funding during his undergraduate degree, when he was a thousand kilometres from home, the first in his family to attend university. 鈥淭he University stepping in at those critical times could have been the difference between success and failure for me. Once I started making a reasonable salary, I was so happy to give back to the University, because they鈥檙e the ones who gave me a boost at those critical moments,鈥 John said.
鈥淕iving back feels like topping up the well. When the well starts to get dry, you need a big rain. And I want to be a part of that.鈥
