The Alumni Achievement Award was created in 1970 by the alumni association board of directors "to recognize and honor alumni who have given outstanding service, . . . and provide encouragement to alumni for perpetual service to Washington State University." Criteria for nomination include "significant service to Washington State University and/or outstanding contributions to community and/or profession and/or nation." Since 1970, more than 400 deserving alumni have been honored with this award. Unfortunately, we're able to include here only a few of the many fine Cougars honored with Alumni Achievement Awards.
