Last chance for alumni award nominations

While our students are continually making their mark on our campus, our alumni are busy making theirs in their own communities, and beyond. The Alumni Advisory Board would like your help to identify and recognize the achievements of our graduates by giving out the following awards:
 
The Rising Star Alumni Award is presented to a recent graduate of Nipissing University who has demonstrated significant achievements on a professional, community and/or volunteer basis or has displayed promise of significant future accomplishments. It is available to alumni up to and including their fifth year of graduation.
 
The Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award is presented to an alumnus or alumna whose achievements and excellence in their endeavours have distinguished him/her as a valued leader. The recipient will have demonstrated positive influence through their professional pursuits. As a result of their actions, the recipient will have made a strong contribution to the prestige and reputation of Nipissing University.  
 
The Dr. James Jamieson Influential Alumni Award is presented to a graduate whose dedication and leadership has influenced significant change and prosperity within their community.
 
The Honorary Alumni Award is presented to an individual who is not a graduate of Nipissing University, but whose actions and dedication have had a positive impact on the Nipissing University experience. The award recognizes friends of the university for outstanding service, commitment and contribution to Nipissing.
 
The Alumni Advisory Board invites recommendations and nominations for candidates. Please send your nominations to the Alumni Relations Office at alumni@nipissingu.ca.  Nominations are open until August 1, 2014.
