Philip L. Milstein '71, president and chief executive officer of Emigrant Savings Bank and a member of the University's Board of Trustees, will receive the 2001 Alexander Hamilton Medal at a black tie dinner to be held in Low Library Rotunda on Tuesday, November 13.

A specialist in commercial real estate lending, Milstein received his M.B.A. from NYU in 1974 and went to work at his family's real estate management company. He became Emigrant's vice chairman and director in 1987, after the bank was acquired, and assumed his current role in 1993.

At Columbia, Milstein has been an active and generous alumnus. He chaired the University's charter bicentennial celebration in 1987 and served as president of the Columbia College Alumni Association in 1990-92. He has led his class reunions, chaired the Alexander Hamilton and John Jay Awards dinners, and served on the College's Board of Visitors. He received the Alumni Federation Medal in 1993 and the John Jay Award for Distinguished Professional Achievement in 1996. Elected to the University's Board of Trustees that year, he is currently a member of the Executive Committee and chair of the Alumni Affairs Committee. His $10 million gift to the University in 1998 was instrumental in making possible the renovation of Butler Library, where the first three floors are now known as the Philip L. Milstein Family College Library.

The College Alumni Association presents the Alexander Hamilton Medal to an alumnus or faculty member for distinguished service and accomplishment in any field of endeavor.

The dinner co-chairs are Mark Kingdon '71 and Richard Witten '75. For ticket information, please contact the Alumni Office at (212) 870-2288.
