Come August 31, four Jamaican stand-outs in advocacy, law, finance and diplomacy will be inducted into the 2024 St. George’s College ‘Hall of Fame’ at a banquet at the S-Hotel in New Kingston.

The inductees, all old boys of the Winchester Park-based institution, are namely Christopher Berry, chairman of Mayberry Investments Limited; Michael Hylton, former solicitor generalProfessor Trevor Munroefounding director of National Integrity Action; and Christopher Chaplin, Jamaica’s honorary consul in Philadelphia and co-chairman of the Philadelphia organising committee of Team Jamaica Bickle.

In making the announcement, Donovan Chen See, chairman of the St. George’s hall of fame selection committee, said the four outstanding leaders have made their alma mater proud both locally and globally.

He said the criteria for selection by the six-member committee included community spirit, excellence and achievement in a particular field, inspiring leadership, national or international recognition, vision and innovation, and service to the college.

“We feel proud of those selected for this year’s induction as they have been outstanding examples of the foundation which St. George’s College has been laying over the past 174 years for the development of young men,” said Chen See.

The St. George’s College Hall of Fame is the highest accolade by which Georgian Old Boys and Faculty may be recognised. Established in 2000, there are now 56 inductees, portraits of whom are prominently displayed at the North Street institution.  The hall of fame is hosted every two years.
