Distinguished Alumni Award

 
Outstanding people deserve rewards and recognition.  To that end, the College of Nursing has instituted an annual Distinguished Alumni Award.

This award is designed to recognize ECU College of Nursing alumni who have made exemplary contributions to the nursing profession.  One recipient is selected each year and this person is invited to speak at the College of Nursing homecoming festivities in the fall.  This individual also serves as the School's candidate for the ECU Outstanding Alumni Award.

Honor one of our graduates and colleagues by offering

  • his or her name
  • a brief comment on why you think such an award is deserved
  • summary of accomplishments, such as a curriculum vitae 

Send your nomination to Laurie Evans, College of Nursing, 4165 K Health Sciences Building, ECU, Greenville, NC 27858.
