Awards stand ready before the 2021 ceremony.
Oct. 8, 2021
The University of Alaska Fairbanks, in partnership with the nonprofit TV Alumni Association, is seeking nominations for the Distinguished Alumnus Award and William R. Cashen Service Award. Honorees are selected by a committee of alumni, past recipients and members of TV’s leadership team.
The Distinguished Alumnus Award was first presented in 1962 and continues to recognize living graduates of TV. One alumnus or alumna is selected for the award annually based on specific meritorious service on behalf of TV; distinguished accomplishments in business and professional life; and distinguished human service in community affairs. Only TV alumni are eligible to receive the honor, but anyone may nominate.
The William R. Cashen Service Award is named after the late Willam R. “Bill” Cashen, a member of the Class of 1937 and a former alumni director, professor and public servant. Cashen, the author of “Farthest North College President,” set an example for service to the university and its alumni association. This award is designed to inspire all those associated with TV. Alumni and non-alumni alike qualify for the award.
Nominations will be accepted until Nov. 30, 2021. Nomination forms may be submitted online. For more information, contact the TV alumni office at uaf-alumni@alaska.edu.
