ALUMNI Awards

ANNUAL ALUMNI AWARDS Somerset College Alumni are enterprising and diverse, hail from all over the world, and no matter what stage of life or career they find themselves, they remain a valued and vital part of the Somerset College community. Each year the Alumni Association in conjunction with Somerset College celebrates the achievements of our alumni through the presentation of a number of awards. In recognition of the achievements of our alumni, the Annual Alumni Awards presents three award categories: Early Career, Community Engagement, and Annual Alumnus. Alumni Award recipients exemplify the transformation individual people can create through taking action and giving back to their community. Alumni Award recipients are leaders and innovators in their field, and exemplify the way in which we can create change through the application of passion, empathy, and dedication. The Alumni Association encourages internal and external nominations for each of the Annual Alumni Awards categories. All nominees must have completed Year 12 at Somerset College and must not be a member of the Alumni Association Committee or the Annual Alumni Awards Selection Committee.
