University of Pittsburgh Legacy Laureate
The Legacy Laureate program was developed to recognize alumni for their personal and career achievements, while at the same time providing them with an opportunity to contribute to the success of today's University of Pittsburgh students. The program is designed to stimulate activity, identity and relationships among prominent alumni and the University of Pittsburgh community. Legacy Laureates are individuals who have achieved exceptional success in pursuit of their life goals and who continue to inspire us by their example. The goal of the program is to recognize these individuals as living examples to our students of the potential for excellence that exists within our University community. The Legacy Laureate program is also a means to enhance the academic curriculum in an exciting and meaningful way by providing opportunities for close and personal contact among eminent alumni, undergraduate students, graduate students, faculty and University administration on all campuses.
