Celebrating the 2024 Northwestern Alumni Medalists

NU Loyal members received the 2024 Northwestern Alumni Medal, the Northwestern Alumni Association’s highest honor. The University proudly celebrates the three recipients, Willard S. Evans Jr. ’77, ’81 MBA; Renetta McCann ’78, ’12 MS; and William Osborn ’69, ’73 MBA, ’18 H for the contributions they have made in their careers and communities.

The Northwestern Alumni Medal recognizes alumni who have had a transformative impact on their fields, who have performed exemplary volunteer service to society, or who have demonstrated an outstanding record of service and support to the University. The latest recipients join a select group of just over 100 medalists—from innovative entrepreneurs to award-winning writers to public servants—who have been honored since 1932.
