Alumni

College Alumni Awards are given to honor outstanding alumni from the College of Human Sciences. Recipients of the college alumni awards are nominated in the spring semester by each department's Honors and Awards Committee, and then nomination packets are submitted to the College Honors and Awards Committee for review.
