Prizes in Botany and Zoology. The following Prizes in the Departments of Botany and Zoology are tenable by students in Arts, Science or Medicine : The Dickie Prize in Botany, consisting of the revenue of £100, given in 1902 by Professor J. W. H. Trail, M.D., for the purpose of encouraging students in the Department of Botany to undertake research in the flora of Scotland, and as a memorial to the late Dr. George Dickie, Professor of Botany in the University of Aberdeen (1860-1877). The conditions of the competition are intimated each year to students attending the Elementary Class of Botany, who alone may compete. The Collie Prize in Botany, consisting of the revenue of £100 bequeathed in 1893 by the late Reverend Robert Collie, Sydney, N.S. W., is awarded annually to the most distinguished student of the year of those taking Botany as a subject for the Final B.Sc. Examination. The MacGillivray Prize in Zoology, founded in 1905 by Mrs. Anne D. Beaton, widow of Rev. Patrick Beaton, M.A., Paris, for the purpose of providing, in connection with the class of Zoology, a prize in memory of her father the late Professor Wm. MacGillivray of Marischal College and University. The capital fund amounts to £200. The Nicol Prize in Zoology, being the revenue of £100 given in 1902 by Professor J. W. H. Trail, M.D., for the purpose of encouraging students in the Department of Zoology to undertake research in the fauna of Scotland, and as a memorial to the late Professor James Nicol (1853-1878). The conditions of the competition are intimated each year to the students attending the Elementary Class of Zoology who alone may compete. The Lyon Prize. Felix W. Lyon, M.D., King's College, 1850, Edinburgh, who died on 5th January, 1891, bequeathed one-third of the residue of his estate for the purpose of founding an annual prize in the University of Aberdeen, but the conditions of the award having been found to be unworkable a petition was presented to the Court of Session to frame a scheme for the administration of the benefaction. The Court accordingly settled a scheme providing as follows: 1. The Prize shall be called the "Lyon Prize," and shall be awarded in turn in successive Academic years in the Faculties of Science, Arts, Divinity, Law and Medicine. [In the year 1901-2 the prize was awarded in the Faculty of Science; in 1902-3 in the Faculty of Arts; in 1903-4 in the Faculty of Divinity; in 1904-5 in the Faculty of Law; in 1905-6 in the Faculty of Medicine; in 1906-7 again in the Faculty of Science, and so on in the same rotation.] 2. The Prize shall be annually awarded to the Graduate in the Faculty of Science, Arts, Divinity, Law or Medicine, as the case may be, who is selected by the Senatus as the most distinguished graduate of the year, upon a report by the Faculty in which the Prize falls to be awarded in the year in question, after consultation. with the professors and lecturers concerned.
