Award Nominations
We welcome you to nominate a member of the alumni community for awards. Nominations are reviewed in the spring and recipients are announced in the fall. Alumni Awards are presented during Homecoming in October.
Nominators may update packets each year the nomination is considered active. Please do not inform candidates that they are under consideration since only a limited number of recipients are chosen each year from many worthy individuals. All deliberations are kept confidential. Individuals may be re-nominated at any time.
Many of our alumni continue their passion for athletics at the collegiate level, competing in NCAA Division I, II, and III programs. We take great pride in celebrating their achievements. You can explore our Athletes Beyond Greenhill page to see our alumni who have excelled in college sports.
Graduates who have earned a collegiate letter in NCAA-regulated sports are honored in the Tom Perryman Alumni Center, located in the Phillips Family Athletic Center. Alumni, if your name should be added to a list, please contact fill out our form.
