Citation for Excellence Awards
This award honors alumni and friends of the university who brought distinction
to UC Davis through their professional accomplishments, volunteer leadership
to the university or community, or by special achievement. From 1988-1995,
the Cal Aggie Alumni Association (CAAA) selected recipients from nominations
received during its annual award nomination process. In 1996, CAAA changed
the Citation for Excellence to honor recipients of awards from individual schools,
colleges and programs across campus.
