The School of Nursing established a scholarship fund in remembrance of Paul Tschudi, a health sciences professor who died in April.
The Paul Tschudi Memorial Award will be given annually to a second- or third-semester nursing student who demonstrates “extraordinary” leadership and service to others. Nursing school officials plan to raise $25,000 to give the award to its first recipient at the school’s graduation celebration in May of next calendar year.
Paul Tschudi, an assistant professor of health sciences and alumnus of the Graduate School of Education and Human Development, died April 7 in an accidental house fire in Northeast D.C. at the age of 73.
Jake Bilsborow finished work at his landscaping job at about 1pm in Adelaide Hills on Wednesday.
The 18-year-old told Daily Mail Australia it was a blisteringly-hot day and went with two friends to a Bridgewater waterhole - a place he d been visiting since he was a child.
He always climbed right to the top to jump from the highest rock, but on that day, the talented sportsman decided to do a flip into the water.
