Each year during Alumni Weekend, the Monmouth
College Alumni Board recognizes certain members of the alumni association or college community
who have brought notable distinction to themselves in their careers or professions, who have
served Monmouth well, and who inspire others to succeed.
We encourage Monmouth College alumni to nominate individuals who have
distinguished themselves and deserve this recognition.
To nominate an individual for one of the following awards, send a profile of no less than
200 words that lists personal and professional accomplishments and reasons why the nominees
should win the award. Email them to
alumni@monm.edu or send postal mail to Lucy Thompson '99, Director of Alumni Programs/Monmouth
Fund,
700 E. Broadway, Monmouth, IL 61462-1998.
