Awards & Recognition

Accolades

The Annual Review & Accolades are designed to allow networks to reflect on the last year, celebrate successes, plan for the future and help us stay organized year over year. Evaluating the past year helps us identify what distinguished successful engagement opportunities and therefore improve our planning and processes for future programming. The Accolades are a means of recognizing and honoring the many hours that network leaders put into planning these engagement opportunities.

The award reflects the honor that recipients bring to the university and its alumni through their actions and contributions.
