About the awards: Creighton University annually confers these awards during the President's Convocation on a member or members of the faculty and administration deemed outstanding for contributions in research, writing, special service, or some other field that brings credit to the University. Length of service is a measure in the selection, but it should not be the determining factor. Nominations are accepted beginning Oct. 1 and due Nov. 1.
