On March 10th, 2008, President Janyne Hodder was very happy to receive a cheque from JeRome Harris Miller as a contribution to the Winston Saunders Scholarship Fund. Mr Miller raised the funds at his second Exuberance - an event organized at The Dundas Centre for The Performing Arts which included drama, dance and an auction of some of his paintings.
The College of The Bahamas is determined to preserve the memories of Bahamian heroes such as Winston Saunders who was a playwright, the long-time director of the Dundas Centre for The Performing Arts and a cultural giant. One way that The College can ensure our outstanding Bahamians can live on is in the admitting of students who are recipients of named scholarships.
The scholarship is awarded to a student who wants to read English, the subject Mr Saunders taught at St Anne’s School in the middle sixties.
