Michael N. Chernoff has established the Chernoff Family Award in honour of Dorine Marjorie Chernoff (nee Dennison, B.A. 1951, University of Manitoba at Brandon). The award also honours Dorine’s parents Agnes and Roland Dennison who encouraged Dorine and provided the environment for Dorine to attain her university degree at Brandon. The Chernoff family is a strong supporter of education for all Canadians and to this end has established similar support for students at other universities and high schools in Canada. The benefactors believe that the legacy of these awards will be an enduring benefit to our country’s citizens, flowing from the future success of the award recipients. The Chernoff Family Award will be granted to the top two entering students each year. The award may be renewable a maximum of three times, provided that the student maintains a minimum grade point average of 3.5 and is registered in at least 24 credit hours at Brandon University.
