Award Criteria/Nomination Form
The Marygrove College Distinguished Alumni Awards are honors
bestowed by Marygrove College and the Marygrove College Alumni
Association. These awards have been established to recognize
and honor alumni who have distinguished themselves and their
alma mater.
All living Marygrove College alumni (those who have earned
undergraduate or graduate degrees) are eligible for this award.
Alumni, family, friends, co-workers, faculty, staff and students
may submit nominations. Self-nominations are accepted. The
Alumni Association Advisory Council will review nominations
and select the award recipients.
The Distinguished Alumni Awards celebrate the ideals of competence
(the ability to understand and participate effectively in the
promise of our evolving world), commitment (the capacity to
care about and respect the worth and dignity of people), and
compassion (the will to act responsibly based upon one’s beliefs
and to contribute to the building of a more just and humane
world), qualities that Marygrove has always tried to instill
in its graduates. These awards honor graduates who have made
significant contributions and demonstrated leadership in any
of the following areas:
- Professional, educational or artistic endeavors
- The community through government service and/or civic organizations
(such as Lions Club, City Planning Commissions, government
committees, etc.)
- Political action, social justice or volunteer activities
in schools, hospitals, etc.
- Marygrove College
Based on the number of qualified applicants, up to six awards
will be given annually. For one of these awards, special consideration
will be given to alums who graduated within the last 15 years.
All nominations will remain on file and will be reconsidered
for two consecutive years.
The Distinguished Alumni Awards will be presented on Friday,
