The Reveille 25 awards program will annually honor 25 high achieving young alumni who have enhanced 汤头条鈥檚 reputation through their outstanding leadership and service to their communities and professions.

鈥淲e are proud to offer The Reveille 25 to promote the good work and accomplishments of our young alumni members who are carrying out the university鈥檚 mission for excellence and making a positive difference in the world,鈥 said Jeff Davis, executive director of the 汤头条 Alumni Association. 鈥淚t also creates a new avenue for us to connect and engage with more of our recent Bulldog graduates as they pursue their journeys after college.鈥
Candidates for the award must have earned an undergraduate or graduate degree from Mississippi State and be under the age of 40 by the announcement of winners in December.
Applications for the awards opened Sept. 1 and will close Nov. 1. Alumni and friends are encouraged to nominate candidates for the inaugural class of聽The Reveille 25 online at .
