The Jan Lee Latin Award was established in 2022 by her daughter Phoebe Jane Gunn by a generous donation of $20,000 to the University to commemorate her mother Janice Maree Lee (1945 - 2021) BA (Hons) 1967, LLB 1992, M Phil 2018. Jan was actively involved with the Australian Education Union SA Branch (previously the South Australian Institute of Teachers) and was a lifelong learner. The Award was established in conjunction with the Department of Historical and Classical Studies in the School of Humanities and recognises the need to encourage the study of Latin.
The scholarship will be a one lump sum payment and has an amount of $1,000. It is likely to be tax exempt, subject to Taxation Office approval.
