Six students from the Faculty of Business Administration at the University of Regina have been selected to take part in a special partnership program with one of Canada's leading business schools. Paul J. Hill School business students Derek Fleck, Kristin Gomersall, Logan Hutt, Jennifer Marlowe, Monique Paproski and Sawyer Swan are the recipients of the 2012 Hill-Ivey Scholarships. These scholarships provide the opportunity for students to get an exceptional education at the Paul J. Hill School of Business in their first two years of university and receive $40,000 to spend their third and fourth years at the Richard Ivey School of Business at the University of Western Ontario.

"I'm pleased to congratulate our most recent Hill-Ivey scholarship winners," says Dean of the Paul J. Hill School of Business, Dr. Anne Lavack. "The six student winners we're announcing today will graduate with Honours Business Administration (HBA) degrees. They will receive a very high quality education that will prepare them to be influential business leaders."

The Paul J. Hill School of Business was named in November 2007, following a $10 million gift from Regina businessman Paul Hill. As well as establishing the school's new identity, Hill's investment created a unique relationship with the Richard Ivey School of Business where students will focus on the "business case study" approach to education for which Ivey has become internationally recognized.

The Hill-Ivey scholarships ensure a total of 30 students will each receive $40,000 to support their business education. The first scholarship winners were announced in September 2008.

In addition, the Paul J. Hill School of Business also today announced 10 recipients of the Hill Scholarship in Business Ethics. Jessica Baer, Jordan Fenwick, Janessa Hegel, Kimberly Hiebert, Kelsey Hudym, Matthew Klinger, Kayla Kozan, Taylor Mountain, Brett Pelzer and Basit Sami will each received $2,500 to study ethical business practices.
