First President's Lumberjack Alumni Award to Regent Calderón
During the Hispanic Convocation on May 7 in the du Bois Center Ballroom, the first President's Lumberjack Alumni Award was awarded to NAU alumnus Ernest Calderón, the newly elected president of the Arizona Board of Regents. The award honors an individual who exhibits the characteristics of the traditional lumberjack: dedicated, skillful, hard-working, alert and fast-thinking, and who demonstrates a commitment to the university, recognizes the value of an NAU education and is active in his or her community and profession.
