The Tom McCann Memorial Trophy honours Thomas Stephen McCann, a student who made an outstanding contribution to the University community before his untimely death on August 10, 1969. The Award is given to a St. Thomas University graduating student who best portrays the spirit of the institution by their contributions to university and student affairs, and through their leadership, character, and personality.

The recipient of the Trophy shall be determined by a Selection Committee composed of the President, Dean of Humanities, Dean of Social Sciences, Registrar, Director of Student Services & Residence Life, and one graduating student appointed by the Executive of the Graduating Class. The award is accompanied by a monetary prize of $500.
