Student Leadership Awards

In an effort to acknowledge the outstanding contributions of Rhode Island College students to improving the lives of others and making a positive impact on society, Student Activities has initiated the Student Leadership Awards program. Our students serve others in a variety of capacities through their time working at jobs and internships, providing assistance to friends and family members, volunteering with community service organizations, and participating in campus involvement programs. Their many contributions embody the mission of the College to promote civic engagement and public service, which leads to the enrichment of the entire community.

This award ceremony is intended to recognize students of Rhode Island College who have demonstrated leadership potential both on and off campus. Student Activities has the privilege of honoring exceptional undergraduate students for their impact as leaders within our College, state, and global communities. These awards celebrate students who display good character, respect, dignity, inclusiveness, professionalism, and compassion.

To nominate a student for an award, submit the Online Nomination Form by February 22, 2010. Students, faculty, staff, and community members are welcome to submit nominations.
