Putting the call out for 2022 honorees

Wednesday, October 20, 2021

The UNH Honorary Degree and Granite State Awards committees for Durham, Manchester and UNH Franklin Pierce School of Law will soon review nominations for outstanding individuals worthy of recognition at the 2022 commencements ceremonies.

Undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends of all UNH’s campuses (Concord, Durham and Manchester) are invited to submit nominations for potential commencement speakers, honorary degree recipients and Granite State Award honorees. Nominations will be considered for all three campus ceremonies and are due by Nov. 8.

Please submit your nominations by completing the online form. The committees will review the nominations for all campuses and provide a list of recommendations to UNH President James Dean Jr. The more detailed information you can provide regarding how the nominee’s achievements match the award criteria, the better chance of highlighting your nomination among a growing pool of noteworthy candidates.

If you have any questions, please refer to the website to guide your submission process.
