The Haas Awards

The 2009 Peter E. Haas Public Service Award

Call for Nominations

I am pleased to announce the call for nominations for the 2009 Peter E. Haas Public Service Award. Service to the public has been an integral part of Cal’s mission from the beginning, and each year we grant this prestigious award to recognize a Berkeley alumnus who has performed an extraordinary act of service. The past recipients of this award reflect through their work the highest ideals of UC Berkeley and the society in which we live.

All individuals active in public service deserve our gratitude and commendation. Please help us honor them by giving thoughtful consideration to making a nomination for this important campus award.

Sincerely,

Robert J. Birgeneau
Chancellor
