The Beaudry Award is named in honor of JCU graduate Robert Beaudry, who was
killed in an airplane crash in 1951.
He was president of Alpha Sigma Nu and the Boosters’ Club as well as a
member of the Sodality, now known as the Christian Life Communities during his

Beaudry’s family and friends contributed to dedicate a shrine in his
honor, which is located between Bernet Hall and the Boler School of Business.
