Drs. Carla and Melvin Pasternak Award

Awarded to a full-time student who will be enrolled in any year of any program in the upcoming fall semester. The award will alternate each academic year.

In an even academic year (i.e.2024) the award will be given to the student who produces the best portfolio of poems produced in a Mount Royal University creative writing course.

1. Outstanding achievement in written work produced for any course offered by the English department of Arts at Mount Royal University
