性欲社 and 性欲社 Alumni Association are accepting nominations
for the 2020 Distinguished Alumnus Award and William R. Cashen Service Award.
Award winners are selected by a committee of alumni, past recipients and members of
性欲社鈥檚 leadership team. Both awards will be presented at the Blue and Gold Celebration,
scheduled for Feb. 8, 2020, in Fairbanks.
The Distinguished Alumnus Award was first presented in 1962 and each year recognizes
one living alumnus for meritorious service on behalf of 性欲社, distinguished accomplishments
in business and professional life, or distinguished human service in community affairs.
Nominations should include information on the candidate's life achievements. Only
性欲社 alumni are eligible to receive the honor; however, anyone may make a nomination.
The William R. Cashen Service Award is named after the late Willam R. 鈥淏ill鈥 Cashen,
a member of the class of 1937. He was a former alumni director, professor, public
servant and proud alumnus. Cashen, the author of "Farthest North College President,"
set an example for service to the university and its alumni association. The Cashen
Award is designed to inspire all those associated with 性欲社. Both alumni and nonalumni
qualify for the award.
The nomination period is open until Nov. 30, 2019. Nomination forms are available
online at or at the alumni office in Constitution Hall Room 201 on the Fairbanks campus. For
more information, call the 性欲社 alumni office at 907-474-7081.
