“Even back in 1990, I recognized that UNLV was the hub of the entire Las Vegas community. That left a lasting impression as something I wanted to contribute to long after I left campus. So over the years, it has been important that I do my part to elevate the university. Because when UNLV flourishes, so too does everyone and everything around it.”

Dan Tuntland, ‘94, the 2026 Fred C. Albrecht Outstanding Alumnus, shows his profound appreciation for UNLV through personal and professional deeds that resonate today, tomorrow, and far beyond.

“What I came to realize is that UNLV and Las Vegas elevate one another. UNLV produces extraordinary hospitality talent in the greatest hospitality city in the world, and the city gives those students an environment to learn, grow, and lead that doesn’t exist anywhere else. It’s a genuine partnership between ideas and execution.”

An ‘eventful’ life and career led Kevin Kraft, the 2026 Silver State Award honoree, to develop a philanthropic relationship with UNLV that has proven to be mutually beneficial.

“Stay connected to the people and places that helped shape you. Giving back does not have to begin with a title, a large donation, or a formal program. It can begin by mentoring someone, volunteering your time, opening a door, sharing what you have learned, or simply showing up when your community needs you.”

For Jessica Stops, ‘00, the Patrick T. Smith Achievement in Service honoree, offering a helping hand to those in need isn’t an obligation — it’s a way of life.

“From birth to college, we spend about two decades educating students to build up their human capital to become some sort of a professional — engineering, medicine, art, business, you name it. When they enter the labor force, the entire reward for that human capital — at least the entire monetary part of the reward — comes in the form of a paycheck. Yet we have taught them very little on how to manage money: how to budget, how to spend, how to save, how to invest, etc.”

Daniel Chi, the UNLV Department of Finance chair and Outstanding Faculty Award winner, is committed to ensuring that all Rebels begin their careers with a wealth of financial knowledge.
