Lion's Pride

Lion's Pride Logo

Do you know an alum who graduated in the last 10 years who is enriching the lives of individuals and communities, contributing to culture in significant ways, building a business that is reshaping the way we work and live and/or working to have a meaningful and positive impact on the world?

We’re looking for nominations for the 2025 Lion’s Pride Honorees! Lion’s Pride recognizes Columbia College’s exceptional recent graduates — rising stars, innovators, leaders, changemakers and success stories. The Lions Pride honor is presented every three years by Columbia College Young Alumni and Columbia College Today (CCT).
