Each year, Chowan recognizes one young alumnus who has truly excelled in his or her chosen profession at the Distinguished Alumni Dinner which is held Homecoming weekend. The recognized alumni have made significant contributions to our society through his or her career or life accomplishments that are a testament to the work and mission of the University. Distinguished Alumni recipients are recognized for supporting their alma mater through participation in events on and off-campus, board memberships, and financially. Nominations for Distinguished Alumni are made through the Alumni Relations Office.
