Hello,
There was an error in the previously distributed notice. I've attached a
corrected copy. There error was in the subject heading of the memo which
indicated that the memo was regarding the NSERC Vanier rather than the
SSHRC Vanier. Please notify the Department Head and Grad Chair in your
unit of this change. I apologize for the inconvenience.
Thank you,
Marcia
