Business Student Given Achievement Award
A business student was one of four University of Wisconsin System students to receive Alliant Energy/Erroll B. Davis, Jr. Achievement Awards recognizing outstanding scholarship and community-service efforts of students from traditionally underrepresented minority groups.
Natanael Jose Martinez is a recent UW-Madison graduate with degrees in management and human resources and marketing. Martinez works with middle-school English-as-a-Second-Language students and with UW-Madison’s PEOPLE program, designed to help high-school students bridge the gap between secondary and higher education.
The awards honor Erroll B. Davis, a former chief executive of Alliant Energy, who was the first Black leader of a “BusinessWeek 1000” company. Davis served as a member of the Board of Regents from 1987 to 1994, and is now chancellor of the University of Georgia System. The students chosen receive $4,000 awards upon graduation. The students were honored at a ceremony in Madison in February.
