The Annual Community Service Merit Award recognizes an individual and/or organization for their success and efforts in giving back to the community. The award is bestowed upon an individual or organization that holds community service as a priority.
Students must complete an application on behalf of their organization or for themselves. Applications are critiqued on completeness, creativity of the events/projects, success of the projects/events, efforts throughout the year, and efforts to learn about the community's needs.
Students receiving this award are recognized at the University's annual Student Awards Ceremony and a progressive plaque is hung in the Campus Center to recognize their efforts in community service.
