The deadline has been extended for the submission of nominations for the 2021 Chancellor’s Award for Public Engagement and Scholarship (CAPES). The new deadline is Friday, April 2.
CAPES is one of the awards that will be presented at the One University Awards Ceremony on Friday, April 23. The CAPES award recognizes two individual students—one undergraduate and one graduate.
First presented in 1992, the award grew out of an interest among students working with Â鶹ƵµÀUniversity Students for the United Way to honor fellow students for their contributions to the community. The Chancellor’s Award for Public Engagement and Scholarship furthers that objective.
Nominations may be submitted using the . Nominations must be limited to no more than two typed, double-spaced pages. Photographs may be included with the nomination form and additional information or attachments will be accepted.
