Boston University

Given on behalf of Boston University's Department of Athletics, the Joseph P. Mercurio Campus Community Recognition Award honors an individual whose support has proven invaluable and limitless. The Campus Community Recognition Award was renamed in honor of Mercurio in 2011 after he received the award following his 30-plus years of service to the campus and his support of the Department of Athletics. While serving as Executive Vice President from 1995-2011, Mercurio oversaw an era of unprecedented growth at BU and his friendship with, interest in and overall enthusiasm for Athletics played a significant role in the success of the department.
