What is the purpose of the Student Leadership Awards Ceremony?
“The purpose of the Student Leadership Awards Ceremony is so student leaders can be recognized for all the hard work they do for the University. It is a fun way to end the semester on a positive note and encourage students to keep up their great work.”
Why should students go to the Student Leadership Awards Ceremony?
“Students should attend the Awards Ceremony to celebrate themselves and the hard work of others over the last school year. While students may be recognized by their organizations, it is fun to be able to have a banquet to celebrate the successes of our student leaders here on campus.”
What makes this year’s Student Leadership Awards Ceremony different from other years?
“This year we have added a few new awards that expands to more than just student organizations by including student employment, internships, research, athletics, music, community service and more!”
What are some perks of going?
“There will be free food and a photo booth, along with getting to see other student leaders from all around campus!”
