Honors & Awards

Nominations are requested annually for the two Alumnae & Alumni Association awards: the Eleanore Dolan Egan '28 Award for Outstanding Service to Chestnut Hill College and the Distinguished Achievement Award.

The Egan Award recognizes volunteer service to the College through the Alumnae & Alumni Association, while the Distinguished Achievement Award recognizes alums who have distinguished themselves in their business or profession or in civic, philanthropic, or other volunteer activities.

As nominations move forward through the Awards & Honors Committee structure, nominees for the Egan Award are asked to provide references from alumnae/i as to their record of volunteerism to the College. Nominees for the Distinguished Achievement Award are asked to submit references from non-College/non-alum professional colleagues who will speak to the nominee's record of professional achievements.

The Egan Award is presented during Reunion Weekend. The Distinguished Achievement Award is presented during Honors Convocation.

The following individuals have received these awards since their inception:
