2021 Tribute to Dr Maureen Aitken High Tea

Dr Maureen Aitken passed away in 2020 and a special tribute to honour her inspirational 18 years as Principal of The Women’s College (1991 – 2008) was held on Saturday 17 April.

Deputy President of the College Council, Kim Lyons, and a former student and 2005 Senior Resident Assistant, offered some heartfelt reflections about Dr Aitken and the significant influence she had in the life of The Women’s College.

The College was delighted to launch a special scholarship in memory of Dr Aitken, which will support a student facing financial hardship. If you would like to donate to the Dr Maureen Aitken Undergraduate Scholarship, you can make a gift here: https://www.womens.uq.edu.au/donations/
