Chancellor's Award

The Chancellor's Award for Student Excellence was created to recognize students who have best demonstrated, and been recognized, for the integration of academic excellence with accomplishments in the areas of leadership, athletics, community service, creative and performing arts or career achievement. The campus president establishes a selection committee, which reviews exemplary members of the college community who are graduating. Campus nominees are then forwarded to the Chancellor's Office and are subjected to a second round of review. Finalists are then recommended to the Chancellor to become recipients of the Chancellor's Award for Student Excellence. Each recipient receives a framed certificate and medallion, which may be worn at commencement.
