Agnes Benidickson Tricolour Award
The Tricolour Award and induction into the Tricolour Society is the highest tribute that can be paid to a student of Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario for valuable and distinguished service to the University in non-academic and non-athletic activities. Such service may have been confined to a single field, or it may have taken the form of a significant contribution over a wide range of activities. This prestigious honour is given annually to a select few Queen's University students, the number of which is determined by the Selection Committee based on the nominees.
Having existing as simply The Tricolour Award for decades, it was subsequently named in honour of Agnes Benidickson who was Chancellor of Queen's University from 1980 until 1996. The names of the Award's recipients are engraved on a plaque in the Students' Memorial Union portion of the John Deustch University Centre. Notable recipients include columnist Jeffrey Simpson, Bank of Canada Governor David A. Dodge and Canadian Cabinet minister James Armstrong Richardson.
