J. G. Bourassa Cup

The Bourassa Cup is presented annually to the most outstanding member of the graduating D.D.S. class in Dentistry on the basis of academic proficiency and extra-curricular activities. It was provided by classmates of the late Joseph Gregory Bourassa, an outstanding member of the class of 1959, who lost his life a few months after graduation. The winner must obtain standing each year without supplementals or conditions and receive recommendation from the Dental Students’ Society on the basis of community service or participation in athletics and preferably both. The cup is kept permanently in the Dentistry building and the winner receives a commemorative plaque. First awarded in 1961.
