Commencement Awards
Commencement is a celebration of accomplishments of our graduates. With so many talented
graduates, we certainly have a lot to celebrate.
Ann Heller Maberry Award
The Ann Heller Maberry Award is conferred annually upon a senior woman distinguished by outstanding character,
high academic achievement, proven responsibility, and service to the University.
Cardinal Spellman Award
The Cardinal Spellman Award is conferred annually upon a senior man or woman who has attained a G.P.A. of at
least 3.5, aspires to graduate study in an academic or professional field, and exemplifies
the ideals of the University.
Helen L. Corbitt Awards
The Helen L. Corbitt Awards recognize a senior woman and a senior man who, while at UD, produced an outstanding
set of achievements that enriched the life of the University. A separate letter will
be sent to all graduating seniors with G.P.A.’s of 3.40 or better, inviting them to
apply. Faculty and staff should feel free, however, to encourage eligible students
to apply.
Nominations for awards will be solicited from Faculty and Seniors in the Spring.
