President Tom Kardish Receives the Miller-Hunn Award From Harvard University

President Dr. Tom Kardish was honored with the prestigious Miller-Hunn Prize for his exceptional contributions to Harvard University's recruitment efforts over the past four decades. Dr. Kardish, who graduated from Harvard in 1983, began his journey as an alumni interviewer shortly after completing his degree. 

In 2017, his dedication and leadership skills led to his appointment as the chair of the Schools and Scholarships Committee at the Harvard Club of Philadelphia. In this role, he has overseen the interviewing and selection process for prospective students in the Philadelphia area, ensuring that the most promising candidates are given the opportunity to join the Harvard community. 

Harvard University awards the Miller-Hunn Prize to alumni for their volunteer efforts in recruiting and interviewing prospective undergraduates. The receipt of this award is a testament to his exceptional service and dedication. Congratulations!
