23rd Annual Algoma University Student Awards Tonight

“The students we are recognizing tonight are among our best and brightest,” said Acting President and Vice Chancellor, Dr. Celia Ross. “These students have worked hard this past year to achieve academic success, and tonight we celebrate their accomplishments. Tonight is also an opportunity for our donors to see the benefit of their generous contributions to the University and our students.”

The annual student awards ceremony and reception acknowledges the academic accomplishments of Algoma University’s students. It highlights the importance of financial awards and community support and also provides students with the chance to express their gratitude to the donors who make these awards possible.
