Many graduates of Roger Williams University have noteworthy accomplishments in their professional and personal lives, service to the public welfare, or service to the University. In 1995, the Alumni Association created four new Alumni Awards.

We want to hear from YOU! Perhaps you know a fellow alum who fits the criteria for one of these three awards. Or perhaps you do! Well, tell us about it!

The awards are presented annually. Each award may be granted to one recipient annually.

Alumni Award recipients are selected by the Awards Committee, which consists of at least five members of the Association appointed initially by the president and organized so that new members are appointed each year. Committee members serve a maximum of five years. Membership of the Committee balances proper representation of the disciplines of the University.

The Committee has the privilege of consultation with members of the Alumni Association and of the faculty, but are free to act independently. The action of the committee is final and binding upon the president of the Alumni Association.
