UWA National Alumni Association Achievement Awards

The University of West Alabama and the UWA National Alumni Association are proud of the accomplishments and loyalty of UWA graduates and other non-alumni supporters and feel that these achievements/support should be recognized publicly. In 1994, the UWA National Alumni Association established the Alumni Awards Program to ensure that proper recognition is given to alumni and friends who have excelled professionally and personally.
