Distinguished Service Award
The Distinguished Service Award acknowledges people who have had an unparalleled impact on UW–Madison. While many have contributed to the university in ways great and small, the Distinguished Service Award was created to honor those whose impact has been truly transformational.
Distinguished Service Award honorees are chosen by the UW–Madison Office of the Chancellor, and the award is given in partnership with the Wisconsin Foundation and Alumni Association.
