The School of Civic and Economic Thought and Leadership’s Civic Awareness Award encourages students to gain knowledge on various perspectives and issues of public concern outside the classroom. The school’s public programming allows students to listen and interact with civic leaders, public intellectuals and notable scholars.
Students are able to qualify for the Civic Awareness Award by attending the school’s events and submitting written reflections about each event to the school’s Undergraduate Studies Committee.
Students who qualify for the Civic Awareness Award will receive a medallion upon graduation, are honored at the school’s end-of-year student event and are recognized in the school’s media.
