Inaugural Alastair McEwin scholarship recipient
In 1994, Alastair McEwin AM graduated from the ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ of Adelaide, deeply grateful for the support he’d received through the Sir Charles Bright Scholarship. Now, having risen to the position of ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥n Disability Discrimination Commissioner, he’s giving others with a disability the same opportunity to ‘fly’.
Alastair and his husband Professor Michael Kidd AM, established the Alastair McEwin Scholarship in perpetuity to support undergraduate or postgraduate coursework students who have a disability.
The inaugural Alastair McEwin Scholarship was awarded in 2018 to Aidan Barry who is working towards his Bachelor of Education program at the ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥.
Aiden's story demonstrates the practical impact a scholarship can have.
