Every year since 1934, the William and Mary Alumni Association has solicited nominations from the greater William and Mary family, seeking to identify a select group of individuals who merit the Alumni Medallion – the highest award alumni can receive from the College. More than 260 alumni have been selected as Medallion winners since then.
With it, we honor exemplary professional accomplishments, service to community, state or nation, and loyalty and dedication to the College. The 2010 recipients – Waverly M. Cole ’50, W. Samuel Sadler ’64, M.Ed. ’71, Nicholas St. George ’60, J.D. ’65 and Earl L. Young ’59 – will be recognized during a special ceremony on Feb. 5 and at the Feb. 6 Charter Day exercises on the occasion of the College’s 317th anniversary.
To nominate an individual for the 2011 Alumni Medallion, go online for a nomination form at www.wmalumni.com/?awards or e-mail the Executive Vice President’s office at alumni.evp@wm.edu.
