Terry and Myrna Daniels Award
Terry Daniels studied Science at Victoria College in the 1950s. He went on to become chairman of Daniels Electronics, the company founded by his father in 1938. Daniels Electronics designed and manufactured customized digital and analogue radio repeater systems capable of working in extreme climates. It was one of Victoria’s longest running businesses and continually expanded into new markets and product lines. The company was also a long-term UVic co-op employer. The company has recently been sold to Codan Radio of Australia, which is carrying on at the same location.

She continued in the French Language Diploma Program at UVic in the late '70s and early '80s. In the late '80s, she took first-year French for credit and was surprised and extremely grateful to win the Adeline Julienne Deloume Memorial Scholarship.
