Distinguished Alumni Award Program

We invite nominations for alumni who are making a meaningful impact in ways both big and small—those who lead with purpose, contribute to their communities, and reflect the values of Northwestern Lehigh. This could be someone who:

• Is achieving notable success or innovation in their profession 
• Is making a difference through community service or leadership 
• Has a story of perseverance, purpose, or impact 
• Represents the spirit and values of Northwestern Lehigh in how they live and lead 

If someone comes to mind—you should nominate them

Our selection committee reviews each nomination across the following areas:

• Professional Achievement 
• Community Impact & Service 
• Leadership & Character 
• Connection to Northwestern Lehigh 
• Overall Distinction 

The strongest nominations clearly demonstrate impact across several of these areas and include thoughtful, detailed responses.

Submitting a nomination is a meaningful way to recognize someone’s journey and impact. You’ll be asked to share:

• The nominee’s professional accomplishments and leadership 
• Their contributions to community or public service 
• Their connection to Northwestern Lehigh 
• A compelling statement on why they should be recognized 

Supporting materials such as resumes, articles, or letters of support are encouraged.

• Nominations Accepted: Year-round 
• Selection: Annually in August 
• Recognition: Fall (date to be announced)
