About this scholarship
Established in 2022 by St John’s College and Mr Greg and Mrs Wendy O’Meara in honour of Keith Entwistle AM, under the Create Change Scholarship Match initiative. Keith was a graduate of The University of Queensland in Veterinary Science (1962) and had a distinguished career in beef cattle research and veterinary education, recognised by the award of the Gatton Gold Medal in 2006. The annual distributions of the endowment support a student experiencing financial hardship with the cost of residential fees at St John’s College.
