Award Criteria
The Mack Easton Distinguished Alumni Award is the CU Denver Alumni Board’s highest honor. It is presented to an individual who has demonstrated a long-term commitment to serving CU Denver, its students, and alumni. The award was developed by the CU Denver Alumni community in memory of D. Mack Easton, the Dean of the "Denver Extension Center" in the early sixties. His vision paved the way for the extension to become the diverse and dynamic urban research university it is today. Nominees may be drawn from the community at large and need not be alumni. Current members of the CU Denver Alumni Board are not eligible.
Graduate of the Last Decade Award - The G.O.L.D. Award recognizes graduates of the last ten years for their accomplishments in their career, service, and/or volunteer efforts that have brought honor to individuals and CU Denver.
Each of the university's seven schools and colleges will honor an exceptional alumnus/a who, by their distinguished career and service to the university, state, nation, or world, has brought honor to CU Denver, their community, and themselves.
If you are interested in being part of your school or college's distinguished alumni award selection process, please connect with the relevant development officer.
