The Emperor 1 Sergio Apolloni Memorial Scholarship was founded in 1991, Reign 4, by Emperor 4 Andrew Kennedy under the protectorate of the Trillium Knights of Ontario. Currently, the University of Toronto (University College) manages and awards about $500 to a student annually from an endowment fund of $11,500 which had been
donated in 2000, by Gary Farr. The award is now offered to a student in the Sexual Diversity Studies program (SDS),
the only program of its kind in all of North America. Our scholarship endowment was the first in this program and has been the
catalyst for many advancements in the study of Sexual Diversity and the growth of the program from an undergraduate
minor course in 1998 to now an undergraduate Specialist (10 full courses) and a Major (at least 6), more info 1 , more info 2, student info. |
