A lunch was held on November 29 to honor the scholarship recipients and the Bishop Family represented by Jane Bishop, Errett Bishop's widow.

These awards are given annually, through the Financial Aid Office, to undergraduate Mathematics majors who have an excellent academic record and are in their senior year.

Helen Bishop, Errett Bishop's mother, established the scholarship to honor Professor Bishop's deep interest in undergraduate students and his support of those who wished to advance in their knowledge of Mathematics. Professor Bishop was an internationally renowned mathematician who was one of the founders of UCSD's mathematics program. Errett Bishop made significant advances in the area of mathematical analysis during the period 1954 to 1964. The great depth of his discoveries and remarkable originality of his thought brought him recognition as one of the world's leaders in his area of mathematics.
