The McKenna family are donating $1 million in support of the Philosophy, Politics and Economics program at Mount Allison, which is to be renamed after the former premier of New Brunswick.
A total of $5 million has been raised to fund the program, which will now be called the Frank McKenna School of Philosophy, Politics, and Economics.
A press release from Mount Allison says “the investment will enable new international and work-integrated learning opportunities and global internships for Philosophy, Politics, and Economics students. The gift will also fund the new McKenna Scholars program, providing scholarships and bursaries for students throughout their degree.”
The school is expected to be officially launched in 2021.
