RICHARDRICHARD D.D. CHALLENERCHALLENER ’44‘44 SR.SR. PRIZEPRIZE

Established in 2000 in honor of Professor Richard D. Challener, Princeton Class of 1994, the Challener Prize is awarded to an undergraduate senior in any department or program who shall have submitted a senior thesis of outstanding quality on a topic having to do with Canada (of substantial relevance to Canadian culture, themes, experiences or issues).

In 2013-2014, Canadian Studies commended two seniors for their outstanding theses:

Sally Butler '14, an English major from Etobicoke, Ont., won the prize for her thesis entitled “The Puzzle Takes Over: Perceiving Disease In All Its Complexity.” Sally’s thesis conveys the story of H. pylori, an infectious bacterium responsible for gastritis, peptic ulcers, and, in a subset of cases, stomach cancer. As part of her research, Sally traveled through the Northwest Territories and the Yukon, observing first-hand an H. pylori-centered health intervention in a remote Aboriginal community.

After graduation, Sally will work for a year as Regional Program Coordinator for Reach Out and Read, an American Sally Butler ‘14 non-profit organization that advocates for childhood literacy. Upon completion of that role, she will enroll in Columbia University’s Premedical Postbaccalaureate Program before applying to medical school.

David Mackasey '14, a Politics major from Beaconsfield, QB, won the prize for his thesis entitled “Canada’s Own The Podium Initiative: A Case Study in the Political Manipulation of Olympic Success.” David’s thesis topic enabled him to meld three topics of particular interest to him: politics, Olympic sport, and his home country. His thesis research focused on an analysis of the effects of Olympic results on Canada’s federal election outcomes, before and after the implementation of the ‘Own the Podium’ program.

After graduation, David will work with Eastdil Secured Wells Fargo, a real estate investment bank. David Mackasey ‘14 RICHARD D. CHALLENER ‘44 SR. PRIZE L.G.
