Doby Award

Background

A highlight of each year's CAP Forum is the presentation of the Dr. Winston C. Doby Impact Award. The award is given to two exceptional UC professionals chosen by colleagues in recognition of their individual commitment to improving educational opportunities for California students. Like Winston Doby himself, these two people should demonstrate an unwavering dedication to student access, advocacy and social justice, whatever the length of their tenure at UC. Learn more about Dr. Doby.
