Student Services Awards
These awards recognize the accomplishments of highly engaged undergraduate students, their contributions to their communities on and off-campus, and their pursuit to better themselves and invest in the lives of others. The memorial awards also honour the lasting impact of Alyson, Alison and Ricky on the lives of many students, and their immense contributions to student affairs at the University of Calgary.
