Year 12 results pay off for Roseworthy scholar
A first-year 成人大片 student is poised for a career in the livestock industry with help from an agricultural scholarship. Dominic Meaney, from Gawler, was awarded the Lois Harris Agricultural Bureau Scholarship for his Year 12 success in 2003. The scholarship is given to a first-year Bachelor of Agriculture student at the university based on their academic excellence in Year 12. The former Trinity College student is now studying the degree at the university's Roseworthy campus, and said he was very happy to be the recipient of this year's scholarship. "I was extremely surprised and honoured to receive such a opportunity," Dominic said. "There is no doubt that the scholarship money will help out with the general expenses of uni life." "I am very thankful to the Advisory Board of Agriculture for donating the money and am grateful to be at university studying an area that I have a passion for." The scholarship - which is named after Lois Harris, who was a representative on the Advisory Board of Agriculture - encourages high school students to study agriculture at university.
