​​Honoring Excellence​

​​After graduation, SHSU alumni continue to embody the university’s motto, “The measure of a Life is its Service.” The Alumni Association’s Distinguished Alumni and Service Awards honor Bearkats who have made meaningful contributions to their profession, community, or alma mater. Each year, a select group of outstanding alumni are celebrated at the Distinguished Alumni Gala, where the Distinguished Alumni Award, Outstanding Young Alumni Award, and Alumni Service Award are presented.​

Recognizing Bearkat Achievement

Each year, the SHSU Alumni Association honors graduates who exemplify the spirit of excellence, leadership, and service. These Bearkats make us proud through their professional accomplishments and commitment to their communities.
