NSCC s Craig Collins accepts a symbolic cheque from Lahave Credit Union to be offered as the Dr. David Maxwell Environmental Studies Bursary.
Lahave River Credit Union announced a new bursary yesterday for environmental students at NSCC. The $5000 bursary was presented to Craig Collins, of NSCC’s Lunenburg Campus.

Fellow Credit Union board member, Tom Webb, says they chose to name the bursary after Maxwell because of all he’s brought to the Credit Union and the community.
