This award recognizes a family of a current Utah Tech Student who has:
- Shown extraordinary support to their student whether personally or academically during the student’s time at Utah Tech University.
- Has gone above and beyond supporting Utah Tech as a whole and the St. George/Southwest Utah Community.
Note: Utah Tech University recognizes that “family” can mean many different things to different people. Family members can include parents, grandparents, guardians, siblings, cousins, or even close friends and chosen family. You can honor these loved ones by nominating them for the Utah Tech University Family of the Year Award.
The candidates are nominated by the campus community. Nominees are contacted and asked to answer questions specific to their category. These materials are reviewed and narrowed to a field of five finalists by a preliminary screening committee. The materials from the five finalists are then given to a head judge and committee who select the winner.
