The Dr. H. Martyn Estall Graduate Award in Philosophy

Robert and I established this fund in memory of our father, H. Martyn Estall. Dad came to Queen's in 1937 to join the then combined Departments of Philosophy and Psychology and stayed at Queen's for his whole academic career - retiring in 1970. He was first and foremost a teacher, thoroughly enjoying the challenges and satisfactions of working with students. He did not publish a great deal but he was a formidable editor - of student writing and as founding co-editor of Dialogue. He died in 2001, aged 97.
