Beau Dudley '74 '79L said one of the best parts of my job would be presenting the Distinguished Alumni Awards. He was right! Over Five-Star Festival weekend, I had the honor to bestow awards to Lanny Butler '63, Buddy Atkins '68 and Mike Spector '68. |
Five-Star brought old friends together to reconnect and hear from faculty, staff and students. The highlight for many was Tom Camden '76 showing off W&L's special collections. The weekend, which was capped off with our Institute for Honor Symposium, proved to me that alumni coming back to campus is so important. |
Read on to learn more about the Five-Star Distinguished Alumni Award Winners, and watch a recorded livestream of the Institute for Honor Symposium below. |

After Class Podcast: The Case for Getting Outside

In this episode, we spend time with James Dick, W&L’s director of outdoor education and recreation. We learn how James found his way to W&L and why he loves his job, the ways in which recreation intersects with W&L students’ experiences in the classroom and life, and how the outdoors can be a lifelong classroom. |

Philanthropy Education Week (PEW)
|
During PEW, students learned about the impact of giving back through panel discussions and special events. W&L’s strong culture of philanthropy begins while our students are on campus and continues throughout their years as alumni. Continue this tradition of support with a gift to this year’s Annual Fund. |
