In 1993, Weatherhead School of Management launched its annual Alumni Awards Ceremony to honor living alumni who personify Case Western Reserve University’s mission of developing
transformational ideas and outstanding leaders. In the decades to follow, esteemed alumni of the school have joined the ranks of award winners.
The awards ceremony takes place during Homecoming and Reunion Weekend each fall, designed to celebrate and recognize individuals for professional and personal achievements and their
dedication to Weatherhead, Case Western Reserve, and their communities.
