Hall of Achievement Nomination Form

Thomas Glasser ’82 Hall of Achievement

Haverford, Pa. - The Haverford College Athletic Department will induct its seventh class into the Thomas Glasser ’82 Hall of Achievement in the spring of 2016. In preparation for the bi-annual induction ceremony, the athletic department is seeking nominations of former Haverford student-athletes and coaches for induction. The 2016 Hall of Achievement induction ceremony will take place during Alumni Weekend. Those dates are set for Friday, May 27 through Sunday, May 29.

The deadline for submission of nominees for the 2016 Hall of Achievement is August 1, 2015. If you have previously submitted nominations for the Hall of Achievement, those nominees will carry over for consideration in the upcoming class. If you would like to nominate a new individual or add information to a current nominee, please complete the Hall of Achievement Nomination Form.

Eligibility Criteria:

A former Haverford College athlete will be considered eligible for nomination to the Thomas Glasser '82 Hall of Achievement if at the time of the nomination he/she meets the following criteria:

  1. Graduated at least 10 years prior to the current year (i.e. 2016 nominees must have graduated in May 2005 or earlier)
  2. Demonstrated exceptional achievement/success in a varsity sport. All-American status and performance at the national level and recognition by regional and/or national associations are important criteria.
  3. Graduated or left Haverford in good standing.

An outstanding team may also be inducted on occasion. An extraordinary record or accomplishment such as an NCAA Championship or finalist, Conference Championship or undefeated season would make a team eligible.
