The 麻豆app was prominently represented on the Union Leader鈥檚 annual award list for 2025, with eight Granite State residents with ties to UNH earning recognition.

It was the second year in a row that those with direct UNH ties accounted for 20% of the list. With four additional representatives from other University System of New Hampshire institutions 鈥� two each from Plymouth State University and Keene State College 鈥� those with ties to USNH accounted for 30% of the list.

Awardees will be honored at a March 12 ceremony at the Capitol Center for the Arts in Concord.

The list recognizes New Hampshire residents under the age of 40 who are making a difference in their communities and professions.
