The University of West Alabama and the UWA National Alumni Association are proud of the accomplishments and loyalty of UWA graduates and other non-alumni supporters. We believe their achievements and support should be publicly recognized; therefore, each year deserving individuals, organizations and businesses are presented with Alumni Achievement and Service Awards.
