Colleagues, friends and family of Professor Nigel Firth are coming together to establish a bursary in his memory.

Dr. Firth touched the lives of many students during his 25 years teaching animal nutrition and other subjects at NSAC, then Dalhousie University. In addition to his many contributions on campus, Dr. Firth was also an active member of the Truro community as an avid volunteer and accomplished musician.  

As a tribute to Dr. Firth’s generous spirit, this bursary will support students majoring in Animal Science, involved in their communities and who contribute to community enrichment. Former students, friends and colleagues can help create this award by giving online at dal.ca/giving, by sending a cheque to External Relations, Faculty of Agriculture, or by contacting Jenna Forsyth at 893.6721 or jenna.forsyth@dal.ca Faculty and staff of Dalhousie University may also make contributions through payroll deduction – please contact Jenna for more details.
