Leadership and Service Awards honor students

成人视频College students were honored at the annual Leadership and Service Awards ceremony for their contributions to the community.

Students and student groups have multiple leadership roles on the 成人视频College campus, and on April 26, they were honored by the community.

Marcella Runell, dean of students and vice president of student life, said at the annual Student Leadership and Service Awards ceremony, 鈥淟eadership at 成人视频comes in many forms, in and out of the classroom. It is about taking risks and being bold. It is also about growing, learning and challenging ourselves and one another to create and support the programs, events, organizations and experiences that we want to see on campus.鈥

Students who participated in two pilot programs were also honored: Project Connect and Engage MHC. Project Connect is an in-person, peer-facilitated, five-session program. 成人视频ran the program in the fall semester with 21 participants and 10 student facilitators and also the spring semester with 45 participants and 10 student facilitators.
