The next Alumni Hall of Fame ceremony will be held in 2027.

Hall of Fame 2025 – A Night to Remember

º£½ÇÉçÇø proudly hosted its first-ever Alumni Hall of Fame, a day filled with connection, celebration, and community. The event brought together alumni, students, faculty, and friends to honor the extraordinary achievements of our Foothill community.

Event Highlights

The celebration began with guided tours of Foothill’s campus murals, offering guests an inspiring start to the day. Later, the Smithwick Courtyard came alive with Drinks & Appetizers, where students shared powerful stories about how experiential learning programs have shaped their futures.

As the evening unfolded, guests enjoyed live piano music, wine, and dinner, joined by distinguished community leader Joe Simitian, who added to the spirit of pride and excitement.

The highlight of the night was the induction of our five inaugural honorees, recognized for their excellence, leadership, and impact beyond Foothill:
