Excellence in Service Learning Award
Service Learning Professors and Community Organizations are invited to nominate a student that has shined in his/her Service Learning experience for the Excellence in Service Learning Award. Nominees will be asked to create a poster that advocates for the organization, explains their volunteer role, and the impact their service had on them personally, academically, and what impact they made in the community.
