About This Opportunity

Awarded to the graduating student who has displayed the most outstanding dedication to athletics, academics, leadership and campus spirit throughout the undergraduate studies. Roderick Laughlin Beck, Rory to all who knew him, was one of those rare individuals who touched the lives of so many people through his professional careers, sports involvement and personal life. His career spanned both federal and provincial governments, most notably with the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, Service Canada and as Clerk of the Executive Council in the Office of the Premier of Prince Edward Island. He was also remembered as a friend and leader in sports, particularly in hockey circles. Rory died suddenly of natural causes in April 2012 at the age of 54. In memory of his life and legacy, friends and family have created this award to honour Rory's passion for sports and his belief that education and community service were critical components of a meaningful life.
