Distinguished Alumni

Nomination Form

Deadline: February 1, 2008

Nominations for the 2008 Distinguished Alumni and the 2008 Distinguished Young Alumni Awards are now being accepted by the SUNY Cortland Alumni Affairs Office.

The Distinguished Alumni Awards are the highest honors that the Alumni Association can bestow upon graduates of SUNY Cortland.

Established in 1968, the awards have been presented to 103 graduates. In 1977, the Distinguished Young Alumni Award was introduced and, to date, 16 such graduates have been honored.

These awards seek to recognize Cortland alumni for distinguishing themselves in their careers and communities, and/or rendering oustanding service to the College or Alumni Association, this bringing credit to the alumnus or alumna and honor to the College.

Dinstinguished Young Alumni Award nominees must be under 35 years old and must have graduated in the last 10 years.

Those alumni nominated for Distinguished and Distinguished Young Alumni since 2005 who have not received awards do not have to be re-nomiated. Nominations are active for three years inclusive of the year of initial nomination.

Distinguished alumni and young alumni awards will be presented at the Alumni Reunion Weekend Luncheon on Saturday, July 19, 2008.
