2025 Alumni Association Awards Nominations

The Alumni Association Awards recognize alumni and friends for their outstanding professional achievements and exceptional service to Queens and their communities. The deadline to submit nominations is December 1, 2024. Winners will be selected and notified in January 2025. While we often select winners in Reunion years (0s and 5s), you may nominate an individual from any class year. Awards are presented during Reunion weekend.

The Outstanding Alumna/us Award is given to an alumna/us who has made significant achievements and gained prominence in their professional life. Service to the Alumni Association and/or Queens is not part of the criteria for this award.

The Alumna/us Service Award is presented to an alumna/us who best embodies the Queens motto: non ministrari sed ministrare, or "not to be served, but to serve." Recipients demonstrate exceptional service to the Alumni Association and Queens.

The Sed Ministrare Award was initiated in 2007, Queens' sesquicentennial year, to honor an alumna/us who has provided outstanding service to their community.

The Young Alumna/us Award recognizes a graduate of the past ten (10) years who has distinguished themselves in their career, community or service to Queens. This award recognition is significant in that a young alumna/us has made noteworthy accomplishments in a short period of time.
