The purpose of the Distinguished Alumnus program is to recognize Texas A&M’s former students who have made significant contributions to society and whose accomplishments, affiliations and careers have honored the legacy of excellence at the university. The Distinguished Alumnus Award does more than honor its recipients, it also further illustrates the great value of the academic programs and student involvement at Texas A&M and increases the pride all former and current students, staff and faculty have for the university.
