As part of the activities marking the 70th Anniversary of the University of the West Indies (UWI), the UWI Open Campus Anguilla and the UWI Alumni Association – Anguilla Chapter will be paying tribute to the pioneering Anguillian graduates of the University. The local trailblazers will be honoured at the 2018 UWI Alumni Awards slated for Saturday, 28th April at 6:30 p.m. at Magic City in the Farrington.
The local UWI Alumni Awards seek to recognise and celebrate the achievements and contributions of alumni from all four campuses of the University who are resident on Anguilla. The first Awards ceremony was held in 2016 in honour of alumnus and former Resident Tutor, the late Mr. Julian R. Harrigan. The Julian R. Harrigan Memorial Scholarship Fund was also launched at that ceremony. The now annual Awards are held in April in recognition of Mr. Harrigan’s birthday on 11th April.
The 2018 Ceremony on 28th April is open to the public and the organisers are inviting attendees as well as alumni and friends to make a contribution to the scholarship dedicated to Mr. Harrigan’s memory.
