Bucknell Engineering Alumni Association
Distinguished Engineering Alumni Award Nominate an Alumna/us Description
In the spring of 2001, the Bucknell University Engineering Alumni Association (BEAA) examined ways of developing an active and enduring interest among its membership in being involved in the affairs of the College of Engineering and the University. It became clear that a mechanism for recognizing the contributions of the College’s outstanding alumni was needed. Bucknell has had a long tradition of recognizing the contributions of its alumni and the BEAA believed it could enhance that tradition by establishing an award focused on the contributions of engineering alumni. To that end, the association’s board of directors established the Bucknell Engineering Alumni Association Distinguished Engineering Alumni Award in 2001. This award will be given annually to recognize members of the College of Engineering’s alumni community who have distinguished themselves through extraordinary commitment to the College and the University, exemplary professional achievement, or noteworthy contributions to society. The inaugural award was given to Lauren P. Breakiron ’52 on Homecoming Weekend, 2001. For more information concerning this award, please contact: Lois Engle, Assistant to the Dean of Engineering, (570) 577-3162, or at laengle@bucknell.edu. Past Recipients
