The Alumni Tribute Awards are coming back to campus – at least for this year.

The awards were initially scheduled for February but were postponed due to poor weather. However, organizers now have a new date and location.

The 33rd annual ceremony will take place Thursday, May 14, at 6 p.m. at R. Gushue Hall on the St. John’s campus.

This year’s honorees are Jane Rowe, B.Comm.(Hons.)(Co-op.)’81, who will be presented with the Alumna of the Year award; Robert Crosbie, B.Comm.(Co-op.)’79, will receive the J.D. Eaton Alumni Award; Thomas Maddox, BA, B.Ed.’70, will be recognized with the Outstanding Community Service Award and Mark O’Brien, BA’10, will be honoured with the Alumni Horizon Award.

The awards are one the highest honours bestowed on Memorial alumni.

Local entertainer and alumna Sheila Williams is hosting this year’s ceremony.

Individual tickets are $125.
