Trent Jarislowsky Chair receives gift from Scotiabank to support development of ethical leadership

The Jarislowsky Chair in Trust and Political Leadership at Trent University recently received a $375K donation from Scotiabank to help develop ethical leadership in government and politics. “Thanks to Scotiabank’s support, Trent University students will gain an even richer experience when studying politics, fiduciary policy and responsible governance,” said Trent Humanities and Social Sciences Dean Dr Mark Skinner. “This program is helping Trent create the leaders of tomorrow in public service.” The chair is held by Dr Cristine de Clercy and is part of a first-of-its-kind network of endowed chairs that is supported by a $2M investment from the Jarislowsky Foundation. The network is focused on building greater trust in public institutions and includes chairs at Trent, Acadia University, Université du Québec à Trois Rivières, the University of Lethbridge, and Vancouver Island University.
