Aside from the university, Hogg is commemorated by a Caribbean island (Hogg Island in Guyana), a sports team (Middlesex league QUINTIN Rugby Football Club), the statue depicted above, and a Blue Plaque on the house he occupied for many years, which abuts the university but faces onto Cavendish Square.
