Preference will be given to students majoring or minoring in French Studies and\/or the Glendon French as a Second Language BEd program.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ann Hilborn spent her early years in Belleville, Ontario and Pierrefonds, Quebec. Following graduation from Moira Secondary School in Belleville as an Ontario Scholar, Ann enrolled in York University\u2019s Glendon College. As a dedicated student and voracious reader, she blossomed in the multilingual, idea-rich environment. Between her third and fourth years, Ann travelled to Paris, France to work as une jeune fille au pair. This provided her with an opportunity, in her free time, to visit the city\u2019s famous landmarks and experience Parisian life first-hand. It was the trip of a lifetime for her. Ann graduated from Glendon in 1976, earning a dual honours degree in French and English, and then went on to Teachers\u2019 College receiving her B.Ed. An enthusiastic, creative teacher who stressed to her students that it was essential always to give your best and to look for the good in life and in people, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ann was a positive influence on countless students in the Durham District School Board during her 34 years of teaching. A highlight for many students were the experiential education trips Ann led annually to St-Donat in the Laurentians. There students could practice their French and experience Qu\u00e9bec culture. Later in life Ann met Peter Clute through their mutual interest in photography. It turned out that he too was a Glendon alumnus. Peter became the love of Ann\u2019s life, her soulmate and companion. Ann died in 2020, but her spirit lives on in those who knew her and those who are recipients of the Ann Hilborn Memorial Experience Award.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-7 kt-pane7598_102db6-0a\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\" type=\"button\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\"><strong>Evelyne Corcos Memorial Scholarship<\/strong><\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p>The <strong>Evelyne Corcos Memorial Scholarship<\/strong> will be awarded to a Glendon student who is participating in an EE opportunity and demonstrates outstanding academic achievement, with preference given to those enrolled in the Specialized Honours Psychology program.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-6 kt-pane7598_e59e03-78\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\" type=\"button\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\"><strong>Glendon Experiential Education Award<\/strong><\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p>The&nbsp;<strong>Glendon Experiential Education Award&nbsp;<\/strong>will be awarded to&nbsp;Glendon students in exchange for a work-integrated learning experience or other experiential opportunities that are coordinated with Glendon staff.

Mark graduated from Glendon in 1977 with a BA in Psychology, and Paul followed in 1979 with a BA in Political Science. They were the only Americans at Glendon during this time, and their immersive experience steeped in Glendon\u2019s unique bilingual culture helped them acquire international cultural literacy and become proud world citizens. Both went on to full and interesting careers in international business consulting, economic development, entrepreneurship, education, and the arts. Paul met his future wife Beate Freter (BA 1979) at Glendon, and although their marriage did not last, they produced three children, Chris, Devon, and Nicole, all of whom are dual US and Canadian citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This award is dedicated to helping future Glendon students expand their horizons and make meaningful contributions to a world without borders that embraces all cultures.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-4 kt-pane7598_fef70e-c8\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\" type=\"button\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\"><strong>Thornton Exchange Bursary<\/strong><\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p>The&nbsp;<strong>Thornton Exchange Bursary<\/strong>&nbsp;will be awarded annually to Glendon students who are traveling on an exchange or experiential education program in order to develop their French linguistic skills.
