The Alumni Achievement Award is made of glass and Greystone.

Greystone is a character-defining element of many buildings at the University of Saskatchewan, and campus as a whole. It has been used through more than one hundred years of building as a material local to the area.

You can find Greystone in historical buildings like the iconic Peter McKinnon Building (1919) and the newest sections of the Health Sciences building (2013).

When recipients receive their award, it is sumbolic of receiving a "piece" of the university and what it stands for.
