Our 80^th anniversary highlights one of our most important communities – our alumni. We honored alumni and graduating seniors with celebrations across the University at various campuses from New Jersey to Los Angeles. The goal was to establish and strengthen relationships with our alumni by welcoming them back in a celebratory fashion. It also gave our alumni the opportunity to reconnect with former classmates and professors, while allowing recent grads to network with them.

As part of the program for the evening, we recognized The Pinnacle alumni for their dedication and commitment to following their dreams and reaching their goals. The Pinnacle is a gold book collection featuring 50 of our most successful DeVry and Keller alumni. It focuses on the rock stars, unsung heroes and hidden gems working in great companies, influencing tomorrow’s leaders and affecting policy in business and technology.

As the inaugural “class” of The Pinnacle, they are helping their alma mater establish a new tradition of celebrating success and excellence. In the spirit of this new tradition, we have created The Pinnacle Scholarship in their honor. The Pinnacle Scholarship will award up to $1,125,000 to deserving DeVry and Keller adult students.
