$ 3,000 EMILY ELSENHEIMER University of Alberta ( Grande Prairie Collaborative Teacher Education North ), BEd
I have had so many amazing teachers throughout my childhood , and they were instrumental in forming me into the person I am today ! I am so thankful to have a grandmother who is a retired teacher . She taught me how to be a hard worker , and I learned so much from her example . I hope to make a positive impact on my own students in the same way .
$ 2,000 ELISE SHERIDAN Thompson Rivers University , Bachelor of Social Work
My favourite subjects in school have always been the social sciences . Collective human behaviour has fascinated me for as long as I can remember . Social studies class in high school opened my eyes to a world much larger than my own . It gave me the passion to travel , to remain inquisitive about cultural diversity , and showed me how I can use my career to help others without the same advantages as myself .
$ 2,000 JAIDEN ROMANUIK Medicine Hat College , Bachelor of Nursing
If I could be any superhero , I would be Spider-Man . I look for superheroes with similar traits to my chosen profession , nursing . Spider-Man demonstrates kindness and compassion to anyone he encounters , other heroes , victims , or even his enemies , and is always willing to go out of his way to help those in need . He fights to create true change , and I will bring those superhero qualities with me when I become a registered nurse .

If I could be a superhero , I would choose to be Rogue from X-men ! The ability to absorb the energy , memories , knowledge , and abilities of others would provide deep insight into humanity . Living with a team of exceptional mutants would be a bonus !
