Recipients of the Cameron and Lusby awards announced

Congratulations to Parker Ingham, recipient of the Linda Lusby Award in Environmental Science, and Cameron Greaves, recipient of the Harcourt Cameron Award in Geology. These awards are made by peer recognition to a student of the Environmental Science Student Association or the Fletcher Geology Club who is a member of the club and whose achievements merit praise. In both cases, Parker and Cameron have been the president or co-president of the clubs and are actively involved in maintaining activities in the clubs, even through the pandemic situation.
