Michael Ham ’13 Urban Affairs. Michael was named the 2014 Outstanding Young Man of the Year at the Troy Area Chamber of Commerce annual award banquet in February. The award has been given since 1954 and is the highest honor that can be bestowed on a Troy citizen; it recognizes people under the age of 40 whom the city feels have distinguished themselves in their careers and through community contributions.
Michael states he was completely surprised by the honor, and he is deeply appreciative of the support and encouragement he received from Dr. Mary Wenning and all of the faculty in the department of Urban Affairs at Wright State University. He is staying very busy with his job and the other nonprofit boards he is on.
Way to go, Michael!
