About this scholarship
Established in 2020 by Alumni Friends Society under the Create Change Scholarship Match Initiative in memory of Emeritus Professor RD Milns AM, the Scholarship is maintained by income generated from Endowment. Alumni Friends dates back to 1967, when UQ sponsored the formation of an association to foster relationships with UQ alumni. The Friends of Antiquity was established in 1988 as a special interest group to support Classics and Ancient History at UQ. In June 2020 Alumni Friends became a UQ Giving Society, following the closure of the Incorporated Association. The Alumni Friends, members of the Friends of Antiquity as well as other friends of Emeritus Professor RD Milns AM agreed to donate funds to establish the Emeritus Professor RD Milns AM Memorial Undergraduate Scholarship.
