Established by the class of Law '76 in memory of the late Douglas Melvin Traill, B.A. '73 (UBC), LL.B. '76.
Douglas was a well-liked member of Law '76 who returned to British Columbia to practise law in Nanaimo, BC. Tragically, Doug was murdered by a client early in Doug's career. Our class and the legal community were shocked and saddened. I believe it was in connection with 10th year reunion that the class decided to start this fund in memory of our friend and classmate, Doug Traill.
