While we were unable to gather to celebrate the accomplishments of the Lehigh community in May for our traditional Appreciation Dinner, the University did award its annual awards for extraordinary contributions. Each named award is funded by an endowment created by a donor for the specific purpose of providing a cash award to accompany the honor. Congratulations to all of our colleagues.
Nominations for the 2021 Lehigh University Awards are now open. Go to the awards website to learn more about each award and consider nominating a colleague.
