The awards program honours alumni (former students) who have been successful in their field or have made a significant impact through community service. The “Alumnus of Distinction” is the highest honour that a UM graduate can receive for personal and professional achievements that bring honour to the university.

The Rock continues to help the University of Miami. In the past he has generously donated to the UM’s Alumni centre and the Football facilities renovation fund. It was noted to be the largest donation ever given to the university’s athletics department by a former student.
