This award is given in honor of Jason Dickens, who was an Ithaca College Biology major. Jason achieved an outstanding record while at Ithaca, being named to the Dean’s List every semester. He was also caring, dedicated and motivated. Jason hoped to attend medical school and to use his talents to serve society as a physician.
Tragically he was the victim of a boating accident in the summer of 1998 before he had an opportunity to realize his goals and fully utilize his talents. This award is given in his memory and honor.
Noelle hopes to attend Cornell University's Veterinary School in Fall 2011. Last year she helped start the first Pre-Vet Society at Ithaca College which many have joined or expressed an interest in.
