The University of Guam named the winners of its prestigious Distinguished Alumni Awards during its virtual All-Class Alumni Reunion hosted last night. More than 200 people attended the virtual event, including Lt. Gov. Joshua Tenorio, Congressman Michael San Nicolas, and Sen. Amanda Shelton. JEJ Vinson, a finalist on NBC’s “The Voice” provided a performance for the event.
“We are so proud of the accomplishments of our Distinguished Alumni Winners, and we are excited that members of the Triton family from different parts of the globe were a part of the celebration,” said Norman Analista, director of development, alumni affairs, and foundation relations.
Also announced at the event were the results for the Last Mile Scholarship fundraiser. The fundraiser was launched in October to coincide with the reunion. The scholarship is a competitive scholarship awarded to students who are within 30 credits of completing their first bachelor’s degree and who are in financial need. More than $14,000 were raised through the support of corporate donors and alumni.
