Established by Debbie and George N. Hood (Arts 1978) in memory of George M. Hood (B.Sc. 1943).
George M. Hood grew up in Gananoque and studied Mechanical Engineering at Queen's. He also played intercollegiate hockey until it was disbanded because of World War II. My father was enormously proud of his Queen's education and his hockey experience, both of which he conveyed to me. My father was a firm believer in treating all individuals equally; he was a staunch advocate for women. He did not live long enough to witness the huge growth in women's hockey but it is something he would have strongly supported. For all these reasons and a lot of love, this award was created.
