Michael Houston Memorial Scholarship

One scholarship, valued at up to $2,000, is awarded annually to an outstanding undergraduate student entering first-year studies in the Department of Kinesiology. This fund is made possible by memorial donations from family and friends of Michael Houston, a former professor in the Department of Kinesiology. He was a dedicated teacher and an international scholar in exercise physiology who played a key role in helping define the discipline of kinesiology as it was emerging in the 1960s until his death in 2008.
