“There’s a dual purpose of the Alumni of Distinction program,” France said. “It does exist, most certainly, to pay tribute to the remarkable achievements of the recipients – both professionally, and in recognition of the many beneficial contributions they’ve made to their communities. It also serves as a source of inspiration to current and prospective students: to demonstrate to them, in the form of an individual who has excelled, that a St. Clair education is the basis of tremendous success and fulfillment.” This year’s Alumni of Distinction ceremony will take place on Friday, April 29, in the Alumni Skyline room at the St. Clair College Centre for the Arts in downtown Windsor. Tickets are available by calling 519-972-2747 or visiting www.stclairalumni.com for more information. “The Alumni of Distinction awards are a true reflection of the College’s motto Start Here, Go Anywhere,” said John Feldman, President St. Clair College Alumni Association. “This year, the honourees have made remarkable strides in their journey from St. Clair College. We are looking forward to sharing their unique story with all of our students, alumni, and our community.” Last year’s ceremony honouring the 2020/21 Alumni of Distinction was held as a virtual event.
