Volunteer & Service Awards

NOMINATION FORM

Purpose: In 2011, the College established a new Advisory Committee on Volunteer and Service Programs to support the mission of developing socially responsible citizens who are engaged in serving others through community service. In the spring semester, the committee will invite nominations, including self-nominations, from the campus and the community to recognize student volunteers, college organizations and community partner organizations engaged in service between April 1, 2011 and March 31, 2012. The nominations will be reviewed and selected by the advisory committee.

Eligibility: All current SUNY Genseo students, all recognized student organizations, and community organizations that engage SUNY Genseo students in service. Criteria: The criteria to be used in reviewing nominations for organizations will include impact on the community, services provided to clients, and impact on student volunteers. The criteria to be used in reviewing nominations for individual students will include impact on the community, services provided to clients, personal motivation, and leadership.

Volunteer and Service Recognition Dinner: The awards will be presented at the volunteer and service recognition dinner on March 29 at 6:00 pm at the Big Tree Inn.
