Marion D. Schrank Student Leadership Award

In 1998, the Student Leadership Award was created to recognize one student who exhibits extensive leadership qualities and serves as a role model for other student leaders on campus. In 2002, Marion D. Schrank ‘69 retired from her position as Vice President for Student Affairs after a 30+ year career at SUNY Brockport. Marion was the ultimate mentor, supporter, and recognized champion of student success during her long and illustrious career in Student Affairs. Upon her retirement, the Student Leadership Award was renamed in her honor and an endowed fund was created that will keep her legacy associated with student leadership and student success at SUNY Brockport alive in perpetuity. The Marion D. Schrank Student Leadership Award has become the pinnacle award for cocurricular leadership. It has come to be regarded with similar prestige to the SUNY Chancellor’s Award and the President’s Citation.
