Awards of Distinction conferred

By Katherine Hinson

Since its inception 25 years ago, the Award of Distinction program has recognized more than 200 recipients from various fields and backgrounds across Emory’s campus. Every year between 10 and 15 University employees are recognized for having made outstanding contributions to the Emory community through their initiative, innovation or leadership. Honorees are invited to attend a dinner hosted by President Jim Wagner and receive a $1,000 award. Emory will celebrate 12 individuals this year at the annual Award of Distinction dinner on April 7.
