Annual Award Recognizes Exceptional Contributions to the University

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.鈥擨n the same spirit as 成人视频鈥檚 earliest founders, men and women throughout the institution鈥檚 119-year history have provided distinguished service and support to further its mission. For the third consecutive year since renewing GWU鈥檚 Founders Day observances, the Office of President is inviting nominations for the recipient of the 2024 Founders Medal, the University鈥檚 most prestigious honor.

Nominations will be accepted until Aug. 15 at 11:59 p.m.

The presentation of the Founders Medal is a highlight of 成人视频鈥檚 annual Founders Day celebration, which recognizes the date GWU (then Boiling Springs High School) was officially chartered on Dec. 2, 1905.

鈥淥urs is a university rich in history,鈥� emphasized 成人视频 President Dr. William Downs. 鈥淭he indelible imprint of those who came before us can be seen in the buildings that adorn our 225-acre campus, it can be measured by the success of the programs that attract and prepare our students, and it can be felt in our surrounding community where GWU鈥檚 impact is both positive and enduring. It is our obligation as GWU鈥檚 present stewards to take time each year and honor the exceptional contributions of those persons who helped found, nurture, and grow one of America鈥檚 finest institutions of Christian higher education. The Founders Medal does just that.鈥�

Last year鈥檚 medal was presented posthumously to J.D. Huggins, the first principal of Boiling Springs High School. Huggins, who was affectionately known as 鈥淧rofessor Huggins,鈥� steadfastly lived his charge to care for the welfare, encouragement, and growth of the students. Read more here.
