Women's Centre opens with a flourish

The Rita Johnson Memorial Scholarship was
established in honour of this remarkable woman who
worked at the Women’s Centre from 1981 to 1983. Rita
was working toward a Master’s Degree in Counselling
at UBC, having begun her post-secondary studies in her
middle years, after raising four children.

The scholarship was established to assist mature
women students (25 and over) enrolled at Cap full or
part-time with a B or better grade average. Awards are
normally given to cover tuition costs.
