Emory Medal

The recipients of the Emory Medal are selected by the Emory Alumni Board's Nominating and Leadership Committee. Emory Medal recipients are recognized for their accomplishments in at least one of the following areas:

Distinguished service to Emory, the EAA, or a constituent alumni association
Distinguished community or public service
Distinguished achievement in business, the arts, the professions, government, or education

The Emory Medal ceremony is a celebration held in conjunction with the fall Emory Alumni Board meeting. The ceremony and reception include the recipient's friends and family, previous medalists, board members, and top Emory administrators, including the president. Each medal recipient is honored with a biographical video produced by University Photo/Video that is screened at the ceremony.
