There can be no greater testament to the inherent value of a university than the quality of the alumni that it produces.  At the University of Michigan-Dearborn our alumni are out greatest source of pride.

University of Michigan-Dearborn graduates make extraordinary contributions each day to society and the world in which we live.

Each year alumni are honored at an annual luncheon, where their contributions and achievement are recognized and celebrated.

The UM-Dearborn Alumni Society is looking for these graduates.  Help us by nominating a graduate for one of these special awards.
