Award Guidelines
Founder's Day Award
The Founder's Day Award is
given to an alumnus, alumna, faculty emeritus
or emerita, retired staff member, parent or friend
who has demonstrated exceptional service to the
Academy. The service must be extraordinary—beyond
what is regularly contributed by others doing
similar service—and the nominee must still
be living at the time of nomination. Duration
of service may be of any length, but should probably
be of five years or more. The recipient may receive
the award only once and should not have previously
received the John Phillips Award.
Past Recipients
John Phillips Award
The John Phillips Award is
given to an alumnus or alumna of the Academy,
still living at the time of nomination, whose
life demonstrates John Phillips' ideal
of goodness and knowledge united in noble character
and usefulness to mankind. The nominee should
have contributed significantly to the welfare
of community, country or humanity, beyond any
volunteer service to the Academy.
Past Recipients
President's
Award
The President's Award is to
be given by the president of the General Alumni/ae
Association (GAA) to no more than three present
members of the Alumni/ae Council who, through
their efforts as volunteers for Exeter, have
made outstanding contributions to the Academy
within the past two years. The award(s) shall
be presented during Alumni/ae Council Weekend.
Nominees for the President's Award must have
made an outstanding contribution to promoting
the activities and goals of the GAA and the Academy.
Such contributions include: exceptional work
within a PEA-defined volunteer role such as class
officer or class agent; making an innovative
enhancement to the Exeter community; or performing
other extraordinary types of service.
The award is for volunteer service performed
within the last two years. Any Alumni/ae Council
member may receive the award, with the exception
of current President's Award Committee members,
current GAA officers and past recipients of the
John Phillips Award or the Founder's Day Award.
