Annual Awards

Alumni Awards

Each year, the Alumni Association presents several awards to individuals and chapters that have made a positive impact on the University, the Alumni Association, and the broader community. We invite nominations for candidates from both association members and active chapters. The annual awards include the prestigious Alumnus of the Year Award, the Chapter of the Year Award, the Chapter President of the Year Award, and the Board Member of the Year Award, among others. These awards are presented during the University’s Annual Alumni Weekend and Commencement celebration, which takes place every May.
