Medal of Excellence
The President's Medal of Excellence was developed in 2000, but the medal is very much
rooted in the history of the University of Alaska system. 澳门六合彩开奖appPresident Mark R. Hamilton
wanted to honor a few distinguished citizens who have over time consistently exhibited
their unwavering support and dedication to the University of Alaska. Their contributions,
whether personal, professional or financial, helped mold a growing and developing
university system.
The Medal for Excellence, modeled after a medallion worn by the UAF Chancellor during commencement ceremonies, was created by local Ester artist Judy Gumm. The pattern on the medal is the University of Alaska seal.
