Nominations are due April 20, 2012.
Nomination Forms:
Over the past 100 years, the College has recognized over 500 individuals for their outstanding service with the Honorary Recognition Award. Each has given unselfishly of time and talent, improved the lives of many, and enriched society for us all. In 1994, the College introduced the Distinguished Service Award to recognize University faculty and staff members for meritorious service to the College and University, to citizens of Wisconsin, and to people around the nation and the world. In 2009, the College marked the inaugural year of the Distinguished Alumni Award, which recognizes a career of outstanding achievement through extraordinary contributions to one’s chosen field or an exemplary record of public service.
The College’s Honorary Recognition Committee selects from candidates nominated by faculty, citizens and committee members. Candidates must be approved by the college faculty and dean, and accepted by the chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
