The Armstrong Campus in Savannah presented its second ever Eminent Alumni Award to Dr. Irving Victor at its Fourth Annual Alumni Awards Gala on Oct. 20, 2017. The Eminent Alumni Award is only presented occasionally and in cases of extraordinary merit.<\/p>\n

Victor was recognized for his service to Armstrong, to his profession and to the community.\u00a0 He served on the Armstrong College Commission before the school became part of the University System of Georgia. He is a past president of the Armstrong Alumni Association and is a member of Armstrong\u2019s Board of Trustees. He is a retired urologist, who established one of the nation\u2019s first emergency medical systems in Savannah. He has been active with all of Savannah\u2019s hospitals, the United Way, the Savannah Area Chamber of Commerce and the Coastal Area Planning and Development Commission. Today, he is a successful restauranteur with Vic\u2019s on the River and, at age 95, he remains active in Savannah\u2019s civic and business communities.<\/p>\n

The Distinguished Alumni Award for career achievement was presented to Sterling Seacrest executive Cliff McCurry, who attended Armstrong in the late 1960s. The Outstanding Alumni Award for service to the University was presented to HunterMaclean partner Drew Ernst (\u201974). Thirteen other alumni received the Notable Alumni Award.<\/p>\n
