Raritan Valley Community College is seeking nominations for its annual Distinguished Alumni Award, which will be presented at the College’s Academic Awards Dinner on May 13. Presented by the College and the RVCC Foundation, the Distinguished Alumni Award recognizes alumni for their exceptional professional successes and/or civic leadership within their local community, across the state, or beyond. A nominee’s academic accomplishments, service to RVCC, and personal triumphs also will be considered.

Members of the community are invited to nominate an RVCC alum who deserves recognition for his or her extraordinary accomplishments. To qualify, the nominee must have received an RVCC degree or certificate, or earned a minimum of 30 credits at the College. He or she or a family member (if the alum is nominated posthumously) must be available to accept the award in person at the College’s Academic Awards Dinner on May 13.

The nomination form can be found online at https://www.raritanval.edu/alumni-award-2020. All nominations are due by April 10.
