Alumni Awards
The College Alumni Achievement Awards are given annually to alumni that are recommended to the Dean by their departments. The Awards are given in recognition for the recipient's achievements in their fields and for their service to their departments. Not every department will make a recommendation each year. On the Friday of Homecoming the recipients usually give a seminar and talk with graduate and undergraduate students in their department. The College pays up to $500 for the travel of the alumni. The College sponsors a reception where the Dean awards Certificates of Achievements. This award is not the same as the University Distinguished Alumni Award which is nominated by the Alumni Association.
