In August 2014 the Templeton Honors College celebrated its fifteenth anniversary; and one of the ways the College celebrated this milestone has been to establish an annual Templeton Alumni Award. The purpose of the Templeton Alumni Award is to honor a person who, since graduating, has exemplified the values of the Templeton Honors College: Truth and Learning, Wisdom and Virtue, Stewardship and Service. The Award is not to be primarily a marker of service to the College, or of professional aptitude, or even of prestige, however good these things may be. Rather, the Award is intended to honor people who are living out well-integrated and upright lives in work, family, church, neighborhood, culture, and society.
The faculty and staff of the Templeton Honors College will review the nominations and select the winner. The recipient of the annual Alumni Award will be announced during the #EUnited Family & Alumni Homecoming week at the President's Brunch as well as at the annual Templeton Alumni Reunion.
