Circle of Excellence Award
The Circle of Excellence Award was created in 2007 to coincide with the 40th Anniversary of LSUS. It expresses annual appreciation to outstanding LSUS alumni who are leaders in our community, region or nation - those who are using their LSUS degrees in a significant manner, either professionally or through volunteerism, to bring recognition to the University.
Award recipients, retiring directors and others were honored at the 2012 Annual Meeting and Dinner at East Ridge Country Club. The Michael DeArmond Band provided entertainment - with Association President Brian Wooten on the drums.
