Each year since 1998, the Foundation has celebrated the success of Ivy Tech Community College alumni by recognizing graduates who have made a lasting, positive contribution to the community, state or College since completing their education. The Award is the highest honor alumni can receive and is designated for individuals with outstanding professional, philanthropic or volunteer accomplishments. Lay is one of 19 recipients this year.
