Lakeland University Awards & Nominations

Honoring Our Alumni

Each year, Lakeland University honors distinguished alumni and community members for their achievements. While we are able to tell many of our Lakeland success stories, we rely on our alumni to help us identify stories we may have missed along the way. All nominations are reviewed by the Alumni Board.
