Newly endowed awards will recognize the academic achievements of U of T Law students

A first-of-its-kind gift made by Terry Burgoyne (LLB 1981), a graduate of the University of Toronto Faculty of Law, will endow new academic awards recognizing student achievement in U of T’s juris doctor (JD) program.  

The Burgoyne Award of Excellence will be the faculty’s largest recognition program, awarded to JD students across all three years, as nominated by their professors for scholarly excellence. Up to twenty inaugural awardees, each receiving a $1,000 prize, will be named later this academic year.
