Achievement in Business Award
The Award for Achievement in Business honors business leaders who have significantly contributed to their organizations and communities while maintaining the highest ethical standards in all endeavors. The Award was created by the Society of Alumni and Friends of the College of Business to honor graduates or friends of Ohio University whose outstanding professional achievements have distinguished them in their fields. Each year, the College chooses one graduate or friend that best represents the outstanding efforts of our alumni. The winner of our Award for Achievement in Business is a laudable model of the excellence that the College of Business promotes.
