Two University of Victoria students were recently recognized with the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for their community contributions. Ryan Flagg and Nicholas Hargrove
are both members at HMCS Malahat, the Royal Canadian Navy’s reserve division in Victoria, as well as undergraduate students at UVic. They received their medals Sept. 15.
Nichelle Soetaert, winner of the Jubilee Medal in the Humanities for the highest grade-point average in the faculty’s graduating class, wraps languages around herself as if they
were straps on a well-used backpack. She has already visited Europe, North Africa, Australia, the Middle East and South America, and graduates this month with a double major (French, Hispanic
and Italian Studies).
When Lincoln Foerster receives a BSc with honours in microbiology at graduation from UVic this month, he will also lay claim to the University of Victoria Jubilee Medal for Science
for achieving the highest grade-point average in his class. Foerster has accumulated a perfect 9.0.
His school is close to home, but his research has already had a global impact. Darren Boss, a native of Victoria, BC, graduates from UVic this spring with the Jubilee Medal in
Social Sciences for the highest undergraduate grade-point average in that faculty.
