Good news that a $1,000 scholarship has been established in the name of Terri DeRose for a student at Ryerson's school of continuing education. This was announced on Wednesday at the annual ACE awards luncheon of the Circulation Magazine Association of Canada (CMC) in Toronto. It was part of MagNet, the annual magazine conference.
