Universitys service award honors seven, changes name
Seven members of the University community were presented with the 2005 Virgil Ethic of Service Award. This award recognizes a select group of individuals affiliated with Washington University who exemplify a character of service and giving to the St. Louis region. Created last year as part of the University’s commemoration of its sesquicentennial anniversary, the award was initially named the Sesquicentennial Ethic of Service Award. This year, the award was renamed to acknowledge the generous support of Geraldine J. and Robert L. Virgil and to recognize the couple’s service to others.
