what's the meaning of goldenfellow?

Answer 1

This link gives details of academic awards known as the goldenfellow, the silverfellow, etc. http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:klq_gvoQfJcJ:www.gtcbio.com/news3.asp+golden+fellow&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=5

Otherwise, I wonder if it is an alternative to the expression "golden boy", which means the ideal person, the one who is generally admired, who can do no wrong in anyone's eyes.
