Another honour for Trent grad

Stephen Sayer, who made history at Trent University earlier this year by earning concurrent arts and science degrees, has been honoured again with his selection as one of Canada's Leaders of Tomorrow.

A panel of judges, struck by Ottawa author Richard Albert, selected Sayer as one of 10 university graduates who have made extraordinary accomplishments and can be expected to assume leadership roles in future.

Trent president Bonnie Patterson said it is a fitting tribute to a graduate of a university which prides itself in "Shaping Tomorrow's Leaders." Patterson nominated Sayer for the recognition, describing him as an exceptional student and an incredible young man. "The enormous dedication required to achieve this accomplishment (earning concurrent degrees) I believe is a powerful indication of his future success."

Sayer was the Champlain Scholar during his Trent years, making him the recipient of the most prestigious scholarship offered by the university. His majors were in philosophy, psychology, physics and English.
