Since 1932, the Northwestern Alumni Medal has celebrated 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. In this special episode of Northwestern Intersections, we will hear insights from this year’s recipients of the Northwestern Alumni Association’s highest honor: Judy Belk ’75, Andrew C. Chan ’80, ’80 MS, Christopher B. Combe ’70 (’99, ’09 P), and Gordon Segal ’60 (’93 P).
In episode 106b we will hear from Andrew C. Chan, senior vice president of research–biology at Genentech, a biotechnology company that works to develop medicines for people with serious and life-threatening diseases.
If you missed the President’s Alumni Panel, we’ve included a link to the recording here in the show notes. President Morton Schapiro leads a discussion with the Alumni Medalists about how the University shaped their lives and careers.
To our alumni listeners, if you know an alum whose life, work, and service truly exemplify the ideals of Northwestern University and deserve recognition for their accomplishments please visit alumni.northwestern.edu/medal to access the form to nominate them or go directly to the nomination form.
