Distinguished Young Alumni Award

About the Award

The Colorado State University Pueblo Distinguished Young Alumni Award is one of the highest honors bestowed upon an alumna/us, under the age of 35. The award recognizes alumni who have enhanced the reputation of the college through their outstanding professional achievements, personal accomplishments, and/or their loyal service to their alma mater and community.

Mission

We are proud of what our alumni do around the world. They lead in your communities. They create new ways to serve and meet needs. They take what they learned as a student and use it to make things better in their work, where they live and for the people closest to them. Every year we highlight some of the amazing things our alumni have done and honor them during homecoming week.


The CSU Pueblo Foundation and Alumni Association annually seeks and accepts nominations for the CSU Pueblo Distinguished Young Alumni Award. The selection is made from nominees who are CSU Pueblo graduates 35 years of age or younger who have had outstanding achievements in career, public service and/or volunteer activities for their community and/or alma mater.
