This scholarship is established in memory of Peggy's long-standing service to the University of Calgary and her commitment to students.

Peggy served a cross-appointment with the Werklund School of Education (formerly the Faculty of Education) while serving as UCalgary's Associate Vice-President - Student Services, for ten years. After her AVP term ended, Peggy dedicated herself fulltime as Professor at the Werklund School of Education where she led the establishment of the EdD program. Her commitment to the advancement of post-secondary education leadership was profound while recognizing the hard work and sacrifice students make. It was her hope that through the establishment of this named scholarship she would help support those who choose to lead boldly.
