Dave Haywood Honored By University Of Georgia

Lady Antebellum’s Dave Haywood has been recognized in the 40 Under 40 Class of 2016 presented by alumni association of the University of Georgia in Athens (UGA) .

This program, in its sixth year, recognizes outstanding young UGA alumni under the age of 40. Haywood graduated from UGA in 2004.

This year, nearly 400 nominations were submitted. Selections were based on the graduates’ commitment to a lifelong relationship with UGA and their successes in both personal and professional endeavors.

The honorees will be celebrated during the 2016 40 Under 40 Awards Luncheon on Sept. 8 at Flourish Atlanta.

“Announcing the 40 Under 40 honorees each year is exciting,” said Meredith Gurley Johnson, executive director of alumni relations. “We received hundreds of nominations this year, highlighting the incredible accomplishments of UGA’s young graduates. It is truly challenging to narrow the list down to 40.”
