Motivated by his own experiences at Brock University, Art Bicknell (BSc \u201971) has created a legacy that he hopes will inspire others.<\/p>\n
As a student, Bicknell remembers a much different University than stands today. He appreciates that the continued growth around campus and the evolving learning and research wouldn\u2019t take place without\u00a0<\/span>donor support.<\/span><\/p>\n He was able to receive scholarships for each of his years at Brock and the impact was memorable to him, beyond his education and throughout his career.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI would not have had a successful career if I did not receive scholarships during my time at Brock University,\u201d said Bicknell.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cIt seemed only fitting that I give to Brock so future generations will have the same opportunities.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n As a result of Bicknell\u2019s annual support, there are now two scholarships that bear his name.<\/span><\/p>\n Knowing that he wanted to ensure the awards continue to build and grow along with the institution, Bicknell made a further decision \u2014 to leave a gift directed to them in his will.<\/span><\/p>\n This gift will ensure the\u00a0<\/span>scholarships continue to make the greatest impact possible and enable students to obtain a post-secondary education, and further research in the field of mathematics.<\/span><\/p>\n Bicknell has truly created a legacy at Brock, in both name and impact.<\/span><\/p>\n His family name will live on and his generosity inspires past, current and future award recipients.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Motivated by his own experiences at Brock University, Art Bicknell (BSc \u201971) has created a legacy that he hopes will inspire others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":42982,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[119,1,4,4523],"tags":[817,2511,818],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42981"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42981"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42981\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":42983,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42981\/revisions\/42983"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/42982"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42981"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42981"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42981"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
