2007 E-Awards

The Students’ Association of Mount Royal College (SAMRC) believes the ultimate goal of all Mount Royal College students is academic success and personal achievement. The Association understands the importance of recognizing and honouring the non-academic and extra-curricular contributions of MRC students.

The E-Awards, which stand for Excellence, Enrichment and Endeavour, are presented at an annual awards ceremony hosted by the Students’ Association every spring. SAMRC has been honouring exceptional contributions from its members for over 30 years. The purpose of the E-Awards is to honour student achievement and leadership, and the dedication of instructors and staff at Mount Royal College.

The criteria for student nominations include a high level of commitment and contribution to the Students’ Association of Mount Royal College. Commitment to participation in College activities, strong academic achievement and volunteer contributions to community organizations are also very important.
