Annual 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.

Happy Birthday To Our Chapter Members Born in the Month of August
VSUAA Chesterfield County members were at it again! On Saturday, August 9th, they took advantage of another volunteer opportunity during VSU's freshmen move-in. The chapter adopted Seward Residence Hall. One hundred treat bags were prepared, and volunteers were eager and ready to greet students and their families as they moved into Seward and other surrounding dorms. We had a blast welcoming families inside and outside the residence halls! The excitement was in the air!
