Elliot T. Grasett Award 

5ince 1977, this award at the University of Waterloo has recognized the student with the highest cumulative average mark in his/her third year class in the four year honours history program. The current award is $2,500 each year

This award was set up by the CFUW K-W Club in appreciation of a significant donation to our 1977 used book sale. Elliot T. Grasett was a long-term resident of Blair and a collector of rare books. At the time of his death, his family donated to CFUW K-W an extensive private library containing books collected by three generations of the family. They were sold at the Montreal Rare Books Auction, and the money raised was used to establish this award to recognize educational achievement.

The fund was increased by a generous donation in 2008 bequeathed by Nan Hewsen, a fellow member of CFUW K-W. It is now funded by club member donations and the annual used book sale.
