2023 Marietta College Alumni Award Winners

In Recognition — Marietta honors special Pioneers

During Marietta College's 2023 Homecoming celebration, two ceremonies — The Marietta College Alumni Awards Ceremony and the Dr. Barbara Diggs Lyles ’51 House Dedication — brought the MC community together to celebrate the contributions and achievements of outstanding alumni.

The Alumni Awards Ceremony recognized Greg Maloof ’67 with the Distinguished Alumnus Award, Chad Walker ’10 and Chase Oberfield ’12 with Outstanding Young Alumnus Awards, and retired softball coach Jeanne Arbuckle and Joe and Linda Chlapaty as Honorary Alumni. Roger Patterson ’62 was recognized with the Liz Tribett Service Award. Samuel Hall, Valedictorian of the first graduating class (1838) and a passionate abolitionist was inducted into the Hall of Honor.
