Spartans of Significance Awards
The Spartans of Significance: Distinguished Alumni Awards (DAA) celebrate exceptional Spartans who have made a profound impact in their fields and uplifted the San José State University community. This prestigious program honors alumni for remarkable achievements, including professional excellence, dedicated community service, and a commitment to SJSU’s values. Each year, we also recognize one non-alumnus who has played a vital role in advancing the university. Through the Spartans of Significance, we proudly showcase the diverse accomplishments of SJSU’s community, inspiring pride and connection among alumni, students, and friends of the university. This event goes beyond celebration—proceeds directly support the SJSU Alumni Association Scholarship Program, helping students achieve their dreams.
